Elevate Oral Care's Ongoing COVID-19 Response 


As the dental industry and world adjust to the new normal, Elevate Oral Care continues its devotion to protecting our personnel, customers, and community. Although we are excited to get back to doing what we love, helping clinicians improve the overall health of patients through prevention of oral diseases, we have an obligation to maintain the health and safety of our staff and the dental clinics we serve. We will continue to go above and beyond industry standards for our dental community. We are regularly assessing and updating our policies in accordawebinarcontainernce with the latest CDC guidelines to ensure that Elevate Oral Care continues to remain safe while we overcome this adversity together.

  • If a fever or cough is present, your Preventive Care Consultant will contact you to reschedule or move the staff meeting to an online platform. 
  • A touchless digital attendance form will be emailed to the office prior to the staff meeting. Please complete and email the form back. 
  • We will continue to purchase meals when appropriate for those who attend our presentations. All meals must be ordered ahead and delivered to or picked up by the office. Preventive Care Consultants cannot pick up or handle meals. Your Preventive Care Consultant will provide further details regarding ordering.

Testing
  • If, for any reason, your Preventive Care Consultant believes they have been exposed to COVID-19 or become symptomatic, they must cease field business activity and get tested.
