COVID-19 Vaccines

Recently the question has come up, “Is everyone in the office vaccinated?” I can understand why people would ask. Governor Inslee recently mandated that school and healthcare workers be vaccinated. I can tell you that Sound Dentistry follows all state and federal laws and mandates. For the Governor’s full mandate, please visit the Washington state Governor’s page.

I believe the question really is about safety. You can see on our website all of the precautions we have taken to keep our team and patients safe. Our treatment rooms are isolated with glass, we use HEPA filters in each room, and our clinical staff uses N95 masks. The safety of our patients, team members, and their families is our top priority.

Some may feel that the question is instead about compliance. As with all health care regulations, mandates and laws, we are fully compliant. While we understand why people would ask, we can not disclose personal health information, as it is against Federal law.

If you have an upcoming appointment, but feel now is not the time for you to come in, please let us know.
