We are happy to announce that Darby Dental Smiles will be re-opening its doors on May 4 for all patient treatment.  We would like to share with you the safety measures we have in place.
 
Since our time in Mechanicsburg, we have invested in our practice, our team, and our patient care with the mindset of having the most pristine, safe, and technologically advanced facility that dental healthcare has to offer. We always pride ourselves in going above and beyond what our regulatory agencies require.  We prioritize health and safety for our team members, our patients, and our family members alike. Those efforts will not stop and our practice will continue to be on the cutting edge in the face of this challenge.
 
With the recent news and outbreak of COVID-19, it has become increasingly important to maintain proper disinfection, sterilization, and cleanliness in all aspects of our care. The great news is that we already exceed the requirements that have been asked for all healthcare providers and in usual fashion, we plan to implement even more ways to increase safety precautions.
 
The following are additional protocols we put in place that go above and beyond standard requirements and exceed the vast majority of healthcare facilities:

• Medical grade HEPA filtration system placed in each one of our treatment rooms.
• Increased aerosol removal during preventative appointments.

Here are some things you can expect when you arrive at Darby Dental Smiles:

• Upon arrival we will be implementing a virtual reception process where you call from your car when you arrive and we will let you know when to come in.
• We will check your temperature, disinfect your hands, and screen all patients with a health questionnaire.
• Level 3/Surgical Masks will be provided for those patients who enter our facility who are not wearing facial coverings
• We will limit the number of patients present and stagger appointments to limit the number of patients at any given time in our office.
• Our team will look different and will be going well above and beyond all required safety measures for your safety including face shields and hair coverings.

We ask that patients limit bringing family members to their appointments and allow only one parent to accompany their child for appointments.
 
We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice. To make an appointment, please call our office at 937.834.2252 or book an appointment online.

Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming back our patients, neighbors and friends.
 
Sincerely,
The Team at Darby Dental Smiles

 “Is my previously scheduled appointment still valid?”
Yes it is. Our team will be contacting each patient via our normal text confirmation system. Previously scheduled appointments will still be valid.
 
“What if I don’t feel comfortable coming in yet?”
We understand that we all have different risk factors. We’re here for you when you are ready.
 
“Can I get in sooner than my scheduled appointment?”
Yes you can. Many patients have had to put off non-emergency care for some time. Please call our team at 937.834.2252 or book an appointment online. We will be working hard to provide everyone care as soon as possible.

I am so excited to tell you about a way to transform your smile which is much quicker and much less invasive than traditional methods. By using a patented and innovative new procedure called Provance compositive veneers, we’re able to help our patient in just a couple hours undergo a complete smile transformation, and they’re even able to avoid the dental drill.
 
The secret is the Provance System which uses additive composite in heated injection molds to add composite or filling materials on top of your natural teeth to create teeth with the ideal shape, ideal shade, and often even able to fix bite issues that have caused wear and chipping on teeth in the first place. The result is a beautiful and long-lasting solution for cosmetic dentistry.
 
The surprising thing… cosmetic dentistry done this way is roughly 1/2 the price of traditional veneers while still getting the benefits of beauty, long-lasting, and no pain involved.

Naturally there are pros and cons to every option, but we’re proud to offer this service to our patients, and we’ve been able to use it to change many of our patients smiles.  Please check out a Before and After picture of an actual patient of ours that has undergone a smile transformation with us using the Provance system.
 
To know if you're a candidate for Provence direct composite veneers, we need to start with a healthy substructure of the tooth. If you have healthy teeth but maybe you don't love the shade, the shape of the tooth, or maybe you have spacing between your teeth that you're just not happy with. Once I talk with my patients about the possibilities and we do a mock-up to see what is possible, they tell me, “I never knew that that was something that could be done with my teeth no one's ever told me before that I could have these spaces closed or that I could have more of an ideal shape to my tooth”.

​For me I am so excited to be able to do that for them because they just light up once they see their new smile.

If you have any questions about the Provance System and how it may work for you, Contact Our Team Today!

We are so proud to have been part of the Mechanicsburg community for the past five years! Thank you to all of our patients and community members for being so welcoming and supportive. #DarbyDentalSmiles
