Transition to DORSCON Yellow

Patients seeking dental treatment will first be assessed using the Ministry of Health guidelines. Patients who fall under the category of Protocol 1, 2, 3 will be asked to defer their appointment until their Day 7 Antigen Rapid Test (ART) is returned with a negative result

The Ministry Of Health will stop issuing Health Risk Notices (HRNs) to close contacts of COVID-positive patients. However, in the spirit of social responsibility, infected persons are encouraged to inform others who may have had recent exposure, so that they can take the necessary precautions under Protocol 3 to prevent further spread.

All travellers must wait 7 days from the day of their arrival in Singapore before booking a dental appointment with us.

Due to the medical nature of our services and the requirement for patients to remove their masks while indoors, we ask that patients wait for 7 days before making an appointment as an extra precaution for everyone's safety and health. 

As part of the government's push to immunise healthcare and frontline workers in our fight against COVID-19, all of our staff at Dental Forté are fully vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine to help provide a safer clinical environment for our patients.

In accordance with Singapore government regulation, starting 26th April 2022, TraceTogether (TT) app or token check-in will no longer be required.

In an effort to achieve safe distancing in our clinic, we have prepared a separate waiting area to prevent different groups of patients from congregating at the lounge area. At the same time, our clinic has arranged staggered dental appointments to minimise hosting different groups of patients at the same time. 

Safe-distancing is no longer required but we do highly encourage patients to avoid bringing excessive accompanying visitors.

Members of the same family/household being treated one after the other no longer have to wait 15 min between their appointments. However, our clinic will still arrange for sufficient time for treatment rooms to be sterilised between each patient. 

In addition to standard infection control protocols, we are disinfecting all areas that our visitors and patients will come into contact with to ensure the entire clinic is always sterile and ready for the next patient. On top of our usual sanitisation of dental treatment rooms, we are sanitising door handles, waiting areas, and the front desk after every patient.  We provide hand sanitisers for all visitors and patients at the front desk.  Our staff will put on their required personal protective equipment at all times. 

We will still be implementing the usage of pre-procedural mouth rinses for all attending patients as studies have shown that this helps with lowering the transmission of viral particles in saliva and respiratory droplets.
