Self help dental care advice

Following Government updates, we want our patients to know that we are taking stringent measures to protect you and our staff. The Practice has been working including via Triage to be able to see patients with some changes in our protocols surrounding PPE and infection control.

At present, current guidance from the NHS and Public Health England means we will still see significantly fewer patients each day.

If you are waiting for a routine care appointment please do contact us, we are making appointments for throughout November and into December. However, we still have specific protocols in place such as how we deal with vulnerable patients and the availability of hygienist appointments.

We are booking routine appointments into November and December. When you receive an appointment, you will be sent electronic forms to complete in advance and the wearing of a face mask to the Practice is required.

Please note that Practice Reception area, surgeries and our protocols are very different, please be assured it is still us under the PPE!. You may wish to watch this video to get a sense of the new 'normal' :  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8d0pFdVrSI&feature=youtu.be
