At Two Front, we take your health seriously. After your free, 30 minute consultation at our Westwood Clinic with an orthodontist who specializes in clear aligners, we see you 3-4 weeks later for your clear aligner appointment. After this, you will check in with your doctor monthly to ensure you're on track. HELLO, MODERN CARE.
HERE’S HOW WE’RE TAKING PRECAUTIONS
Yes. Your Two Front Care Team takes every precaution necessary to ensure we’re delivering the highest level of care and safety during COVID-19.
HERE ARE THE PRECAUTIONS WE’RE TAKING
Pre-screening
Before your appointment, we’ll send you a COVID-19 safety screening survey that ensures you’re not experiencing any symptoms.
Note: we won’t start your consultation if this survey isn’t complete!
Antibody tests
Our Orthodontists and Care Managers take antibody tests regularly.
Temperature checks
We take our temperature — and yours — before every in-person appointment.
Advanced cleaning and sanitizing procedures
In addition to our normally rigorous cleaning protocols, we sanitize all equipment used after each patient visit using disinfectants that are EPA-approved for COVID-19. We also regularly sanitize shared surfaces, as well as our chair and dental tray.
Personal Protective Equipment
Our doctors and Care Managers wear and provide PPE at every visit.
Monthly Virtual Visits
Not every appointment requires an office visit. After you get your aligners, we’ll check in monthly to make sure you’re staying on track through your telehealth portal.
We’ll only schedule in-person visits if needed.
