Dear Patient:
We hope this letter finds you and your family in good health. Our community has been through a lot over the past few months, and all of us looking forward to resuming our normal habits and routines. While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety.
Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice, and you may have seen this during your visits to our office. Our infection control processes are made so that when you receive care, it’s both safe and comfortable. We want to tell you about the infection control procedures we follow in our practice to keep patients and staff safe.
Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up to date on any new rulings or guidance that may be issued. We do this to make sure that our infection control procedures are current and adhere to each agency’s recommendations.
You may see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help protect our patients and staff. For example:
- Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. You will be asked those same questions again when you are in the office.
- We have hand sanitizer that we will ask you to use when you enter the office. You will also find some in the reception area and other places in the office. You will also find some in the reception area and other places in the office for you to use as needed.
- You may see that our waiting room will no longer offer magazines, children’s toys and so forth, since those items are difficult to clean and disinfect.
- Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might mean that you’re offered fewer options for scheduling appointments.
- We will do our best to allow greater time between patients to reduce waiting times for you, as well as to reduce the number of patients in the reception area at any one time.
We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have. To make an appointment, please call our office at (845) 209-2500. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming you back!
Sincerely,
The Aesthetic Family Dentistry Team

This dental group is superior in every way. They are friendly, intelligent, articulate, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. They take time to explain everything in as much or as little detail as you like.Jean

Dr. Horn and his staff have achieved the perfect blend of providing excellent, professional dental care and making the patient feel like family. Everyone is friendly, happy, and helpful. Visiting the dentist is often very anxiety-producing.Janet

I have to say, I have been to many many doctor's offices and have never been treated so nicely. I was welcomed warmly, treated kindly, and cared for gently.Martha

Today my 16 year old son had his tooth knocked out in gym during flag football, the nurse called and told me they recovered the tooth and had it in milk and I needed to get him to the dentist ASAP. We contacted his dentist and was told that they did not have any emergency appts available, they offered no solutions and really didn't seem to care. I encountered the same attitude with several other offices that I called and I finally called Aesthetic. They were a breath of fresh air, their computers were down and couldn't even check their appts but asked me what was going on, spoke with the doctor and told me to come on over. From the minute we walked in, we were met with exceptional service and care, from the reception desk to the examination room warm vibes could be felt. Dr. Musi and Ashley treated my son as though they were treating their own child, so attentive and considerate. I am a little embarrassed to say that I am in tears writing this but I feel so grateful and my heart is so full. This was just a regular day for them but to me it just meant sooo much. Well, my family and I have finally found a dental home !!!!! Our current dentist is literally around the corner and Aesthetic is about 25 mins away, but we would rather travel for Quality service and care. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.Cindy-Lee

Took my 5-year-old there for a tooth that needed to be extracted. The entire staff was very warm and friendly from the moment we walked in the door. They had plenty for the kids to do while we waited and did everything they could to keep my daughter calm,Tiffany
