The Office

Our office is designed to make you feel comfortable and welcome while you receive our comprehensive, gentle treatment.

In our office, we strive for your comfort and safety.

We have ultrasonic cleaners and autoclave sterilization equipment and we follow strict ADA guidelines for cleaning our instruments.

We use HEPA Allergy Filters throughout our office to help create a clean and healthy environment, removing 99.9% of all dust particles from the atmosphere.

Latex-free materials are used during your visits with Dr. Thakkar. Some people have a serious latex allergy, and exposure to latex products such as latex gloves can cause anaphylactic shock. Dr. Thakkar and her office staff have switched to vinyl gloves that are 100% latex-free.

In addition to using latex-free gloves, our office is committed to practicing asepsis. All working surfaces are eliminated of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Protecting our patient’s health as well as our own is very important to us. Every means possible will be used to have a clean and safe working environment.
