It's finally April, and that means that spring is here! Many of us have missed the outdoors and warm weather, so now is a perfect opportunity to take part in all of your favourite outdoor activities such as hiking and sports. As restrictions ease up, we hope that you are able to celebrate spring holidays like Easter, Passover, and Holi with friends and family and enjoy them even more!

While masking requirements have been removed in most places by March 21, 2022, this does not include healthcare settings. As a healthcare provider, our office has infection prevention and control requirements, including PPE requirements, that are essential to the delivery of safe and effective oral health care. Therefore, you are still required to wear a face mask inside our dental office. The Ministry of Health also continues to require that all patients be screened before being treated.
This month, we would like to highlight a topic not often discussed: the impacts of smoking cannabis on oral health.

Have a safe and healthy month,
The Upper Avenue Dentistry Team
