Dear VB&K Patient,

We hope this letter finds you happy and healthy. We want to take a moment to remind you that our top priority is always your health, safety and well-being. As we fully reopen our practice, we do so with the same caution, highest standards and preparation for preventing the spread of infection that we always have and will continue to implement.

We are vigilant in monitoring and maintaining the recommendations of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the American Dental Association for infection control related to COVID-19. We are confident that when we open our doors on April 27, 2020, our existing protocols go above and beyond those recommendations to keep you safe.

We are always committed to implementing safety protocol. In addition to our existing extensive measures, you should anticipate noticing the following protective efforts when you enter our dental clinic:

  • All patients answer a screening questionnaire. Appointments rescheduled if risk of patient transmission of illness, including COVID-19 has been determined.
  • Face shields will also be worn with masks and gloves by staff depending on procedure.
  • Thorough disinfection of office and waiting area. Wiping down touch screens and credit card machines after each use and regularly disinfecting bathrooms, furniture, doors and handles has always been implemented. No-touch hand sanitizer stations are also now available for staff and patient use.
  • Highest standards of disinfecting protocol in our exam rooms. Disposable plastic wrap for furniture changed between patients and all surfaces disinfected with a chemical germicide between each patient have always been common practice. Now increased ventilation has been added to remove aerosols.
  • Increased PPE for all staff who provide dental care. Gowns, face shields, and N95 masks have been added to our existing extensive protective gear.
  • Aerosol control through High Volume Evacuation (HVE) during dental procedures. We have an existing HVE Adapter which helps remove more than 90% of aerosols created during procedures. Air purifiers that completely cycle the air, three times every hour, have been added to operatories.

In addition to our efforts, we ask for your cooperation and support with the following temporary safety measures as we work through this ever-changing situation:

  • Maintain social distancing practices in our waiting room. Chairs will be six feet apart.
  • Wait in your car upon arrival (if waiting room is full) if possible. Give us a call to let us know you’ve arrived and we’ll notify you when we’re ready for you to come in.
  • Have your temperature taken.
  • Please do not bring friends or relatives who do not have a scheduled appointment if possible. Only scheduled patients will be allowed in the treatment areas. We understand if you are a caretaker or are assisting the disabled.

Thank you for your patience and flexibility as we all work towards maintaining the highest safety measures when you return to our practice. We promise to keep you updated through this dynamic situation. In the meantime, maintain good oral care and we look forward to making you smile soon!

Take Care and Stay Well,
Dr. J. Michael Krischke

No Dental Benefits? We Have You Covered!

You don’t need dental insurance to receive care at Van Buskirk & Krischke DDS, LLC. In fact, we offer a membership plan that is affordable, comprehensive, and much easier to understand than dental insurance. Patients love it because:

  • All of your preventive care is covered, and we’ll discount needed treatment.
  • Your membership begins on day one and lasts for 12 months!
  • You’ll never have to worry about a deductible, copay, pre-approval, or annual maximum.
  • You’ll always know exactly what you’re paying with price transparency.

You can purchase your membership plan online from any device in your home. Make your dental care much easier to manage by enrolling today!

Understand Your Options

Every member of your family can benefit from the membership plan at our Crown Point, IN dentist office. This is not dental insurance, and it cannot be combined with dental insurance (or any other discounts), but it will help you get access to the dental care you need. Even children can benefit!

The Child Complete and Adult Complete plans are very similar. These plans are our most popular and include the following:

  • 2 professional cleanings
  • 2 regular exams
  • Routine X-rays
  • 1 emergency exam
  • 10-20 percent off all other dental services (except cosmetic or specialized treatment)
  • 1 fluoride treatment (Child Complete Plan only)
  • 2 oral screenings (Adult Complete plan only)

The Child Complete plan is valued at $387/year, but you will pay only $18/month or $216/year. That’s a savings of $171! The Adult Complete plan is valued at $524/year, but you will pay only $26/month or $312/year for a savings of $212. We even offer a 30-day money-back guarantee if you decide it’s not right for you. Even if you’ve used your plan, you may be eligible to receive a refund equivalent to a pro rata portion of your purchase.

For patients with periodontal concerns, we offer a special Perio plan. This is very similar to the Adult Complete plan. It includes all the same things, but it includes three Perio maintenance cleanings instead of two standard professional cleanings. This plan is valued at $714/year, but you can pay $38/month or $456/year.

Don’t have dental insurance? That’s okay! We have a plan that will work for you and your family. Call today at 219-641-3422 to see if this plan is right for you, or visit the registration page to sign up.
