Ready to tell your patients that your dental practice is reopening for routine care? Finding the right words can be tricky. Our team has put together 3 social media post templates to help formulate your announcement.
Remember to review each post before publishing, adding your dates and phone number and making changes to anything that doesn’t apply to your practice. We also recommend adding a link to a blog post about your reopening, or linking to your website’s contact page.
We hope these are helpful!
Template 1 — New Safety Policies
We are reopening on [DATE] and look forward to seeing your smiling face!
Our #1 priority is the health and safety of our patients, staff, and community. While cleanliness and infection control have always been part of our routine, we’ve adopted extra procedures to ensure your safety. We will be using additional personal protection equipment and staggering appointments to maintain social distancing in our office.
If you are exhibiting any signs or respiratory symptoms, or if you’ve been in contact with anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19, we require that you reschedule your appointment.
Important changes to your appointment:
Check in from your vehicle! Call us at [PHONE NUMBER] to let us know you’ve arrived. We’ll contact you when we’re ready and take you straight back to your patient room.
Please avoid bringing any additional family members to your appointment. We ask that only patients (and 1 adult for children under age 18) enter our office.
We encourage anyone entering our office to wear a face mask.
We will not be scheduling future appointments at the front desk at this time. We’ll contact you to schedule your next visit.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
Template 2 — Now Scheduling Appointments
We’re back! Our office has reopened and we’re ready to serve you and your family.

Give us a call at [PHONE NUMBER] to book your visit. Please be patient with us as we work to get everyone on the schedule and accommodate those with the most urgent needs.
