Health Safety Protocols

To Our Valued Patients at Surprise Smiles,

Welcome! We are open, looking forward to seeing returning patients, accepting new patients, and operating under normal business hours! The Arizona Department of Health Services (AZDS) is still not recommending any type of closures or modification in hours. We will continue to monitor information coming from both the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and AZDHS and keep you apprised of any changes or updates. We will stay on top of this information and bring it to you as soon as possible through our website, email, and social media.

As we continue to navigate through the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic, our dentists and dental team want to assure you that we are continuing to do our best to make sure it a priority that we are following the latest health and safety guidelines from the CDC, specifically as they relate to the dental industry. We value keeping our patients and staff members safe and comfortable.

As part of our daily standard health and safety protocols, our office follows ‘Universal Precautions’ in order to protect our patients and our staff. These are precautions we have always taken, and are not new. By taking ‘universal precautions’ means we always assume that anyone could potentially be carrying a contagious and dangerous disease. We therefore follow strict guidelines to prevent the transmission of any potential disease, be it COVID-19 (Coronavirus), hepatitis, tuberculosis, HIV, or any other disease. This has been a standard of care we follow, per the CDC, in regard to blood borne pathogens.

These measures include:
• strict hand washing protocols

• use of (single use) disposable protective equipment and barriers

• thorough disinfection of exposed or potentially exposed surfaces after every patient visit

• disinfection and high-heat steam sterilization of instruments and routine monitoring of sterilization verification

• continued education on infection control

Specific to COVID-19 (Coronavirus) we have added in additional precautionary and cleaning measures including:
• disinfecting common surface areas every 30 minutes

• providing hand sanitizer in common areas

• screening everyone who enters our offices based on CDC recommendations

• offering preprocedural mouth rinse

As state and national health and safety regulations change and evolve during these times, Surprise Smiles is dedicated to monitoring and evaluating our dental practice and office space for any potential risks as we serve our patients and community. We strive to maintain an approach to our dentistry services that is both safe and beneficial to everyone we serve.

We strive to provide a safe, healthy, comfortable, and relaxed environment for everyone that comes into our dental office. We follow the American Dental Association’s Update to Office Procedures During COVID-19 in regard to safe office procedures, workplace hazards, and making decisions for best office practices. We stay informed on recent information given to dentists in this regard, as well as keeping up to date with any changes recommended by the CDC.

Please let us know if you have any questions in regard to our health and safety protocols here at Surprise Smiles. We recognize that it can be challenging during these unprecedented times of COVID-19. We all want to get back to our normal lives, and we will be able to do so, in a safe, wise, and healthy manner. We will be happy to answer any questions that you may have in regard to our dental practice health and safety protocols, cleaning, and disinfecting procedures we follow.

Thank you for continuing to be a valued patient here at Bradshaw Family Dental. We look forward to continuing to serve you and your dental needs through the various services we provide for you, from preventive dentistry, restorative dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, pediatric dentistry, sedation dentistry, dental implants and more!

Limited Orthodontics provided by Our Expert Dentists in Prescott Valley, AZ at Bradshaw Family Dental

Also referred to as Partial or Interceptive Orthodontics, Limited orthodontics is a technique to achieve quick, easy cosmetic results. There are many patients who require small adjustments on one or few teeth for their alignment, this may be needed to create space to allow more permanent teeth to come in properly, or to fix small alignment, gapping or overcrowding issues. At Bradshaw Family Dental, we offer solutions that can range based on your needs. We may even be able to straighten your teeth in less than 6 months.

Orthodontic Options

When there are minor tooth malpositions we can make simple adjustments using various limited orthodontics. This may include:

•	Space Maintainers: When a primary tooth has been lost, but the permanent tooth is not ready to come in, Dr. Frausto can prevent your remaining teeth from shifting and maintain the space using a spacer. This is a metal device the is placed between teeth to fill in the empty space that will be later occupied with a permanent tooth. More >>
•	Aligners: Using a series of clear plastic aligners, we straighten your teeth. Our dentists at Bradshaw Family Dental can create a digital image of your teeth in their current positioning and then design an image of where you want the end result. These images are sent to a dental lab where your series of aligners are created. This system is invisible, quick, and hassle free. More >>
•	Head Gear: We can make simple dental corrections using Head Gear. This system can be designed to slow or stop the upper jaw from growing, helping prevent an overbite. It can also be used to make more space for teeth that are coming in. Most frequently worn at night, we can make a significant impact with head gear. More >>
•	Nightguards: We now offer nightguards that are specially designed to prevent the effects from thumbsucking. More >>
•	Braces: Metal braces can be placed according to your needs. Some patients only require a limited number of brackets, or correction is needed on a limited time basis.
•	6 Month Braces: This form of braces are specifically designed for your front teeth. More of a cosmetic technique than for correcting dental issues, this is a fast and simple form of braces that can enhance the appearance of your front teeth giving you a more aesthetic look. Your options are not limited to metal brackets, we offer ceramic and white brackets to help hide and blend the brackets, which is often preferred for our adults patients.
