SMILE We’re Back in Business!

May 1 • 3 minute read

At Doctor Smiles Orthodontics, we understand the severity of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and we are deeply concerned about the health and wellbeing of our patients and community. This has been a difficult situation for all of us as we have navigated our way through the limitations orthodontists have had to place on treating patients. From our family at Doctor Smiles Orthodontics, we certainly hope that you and your family have stayed healthy during this time.


We are excited to announce that the government has deemed the situation has improved enough to approve the full reopening of orthodontic facilities. Therefore, our Tucson, AZ office will be fully operational again for all services starting Monday, May 4th!


Doctor Smiles Orthodontics Always Maintains the Highest Standards for Patient Safety


Orthodontic healthcare professionals are experts in orthodontia, as well as disease prevention and sanitation. Not only are we passionate about keeping a clean, germ-free environment, we are also legally obligated to do so. At Doctor Smiles Orthodontics, our Tucson staff has been trained to provide the highest quality care in an office that is safe and disinfected. To combat any type of infectious disease, including Coronavirus, we take the following precautions every day:



  • Surgical Masks, Protective Eyewear, & Gloves: all of our team members wear masks, eyewear, and gloves to protect themselves and our patients from any type of fluid or germ exchange.

  • New Masks with Every Patient: we keep our patients safe by changing our masks between every patient, and sometimes even during a patient’s orthodontics appointment if the mask becomes wet.

  • Mask for Patients: if necessary, we can also provide masks for our patients while they undergo their orthodontics appointment.

  • Staying at Home When lll: our staff members stay at home if they are ever feeling even slightly ill, and we ask the same of our patients.

  • Clean Hands: all of our orthodontics team members wash their hands with antimicrobial soap and/or regularly apply an alcohol-based hand gel. We ask all of our patients to do the same while in our Tucson office; soap and/or alcohol gel is provided.

  • Routine Cleaning & Disinfecting: at Doctor Smiles Orthodontics, we disinfect everything between patient appointments, including surfaces and orthodontic chairs, and we ensure new orthodontic instruments are used.


Our orthodontics team has always and will continue to practice high quality infectious disease control in our Tucson office. If you or a family member is experiencing respiratory infection symptoms or any other symptoms of illness, we kindly ask that you stay home and reschedule your appointment for when you are feeling better.


Doctor Smiles Orthodontics & Your Orthodontic Care!


As orthodontic healthcare professionals, it is our priority to offer the most secure and clean facilities to our patients at all times. Doctor Smiles Orthodontics will continue to adhere to the highest standard of safety and cleanliness through this difficult climate and beyond. Please do not hesitate to contact our Tucson, AZ office with questions about your orthodontic care, or to schedule your next orthodontic appointment. We apologize for any inconvenience our temporary closure may have caused, but we are thankful to be able to open again for all patients. We are looking forward to seeing everyone in our Tucson office again soon. Thank you for your patience! Our team is inspired by the sense of community that this unprecedented situation is creating. We will get through this by working together!


Be kind. Be smart. Be safe. Be healthy.
We’re all #InThisTogether
