Massachusetts dentists were allowed to reopen their offices June 8, and one dentist said he is glad to be able to treat patients again, especially those who couldn't receive care due to the pandemic, WCVB reports.
"It feels great to be back open," said Benjamin Polan, DMD, of Beverly, Mass.-based Exceptional Dental. "For 10 weeks, essentially, people didn't go to the dentist. There are 10 weeks worth of serious problems out there."
The new normal may take time to adjust to, but Dr. Polan said the practice is committed to keeping everyone safe while helping patients regain proper dental health.
