Our practices are now part of the Clear Dental NI group which is a locally owned and managed company.
We would like to assure all our patients that we will continue to provide a full range of high quality NHS, private and cosmetic dental care as we have done for over 30 years.
All of our dentists remain unchanged and we are gradually working towards catching up with dental examinations which have been delayed due to Covid restrictions.
We look forward to seeing you soon 😊

⭐️⭐️⭐️ COVID SYMPTOMS ⭐️⭐️⭐️

As Covid case numbers are particularly high in the areas of our practices and symptoms are changing, especially among the vaccinated, we would ask our patients to cancel their appointments if they have any cold or flu symptoms. These include sore throat, headache, sneezing, loss of smell or taste or runny nose.
If you have any of these symptoms it would be advisable to take a Covid test.
Thank you for your understanding as we try to keep our staff and patients safe.

EMERGENCY APPOINTMENTS

We have a limited number of emergency appointments available each day and we would ask that in cases of genuine emergency such as severe pain, swelling, bleeding or trauma you should phone before 11.00 am to be triaged. After this time our slots may not be available.
If you have broken a filling or lost a crown you may have to wait longer for an appointment due to our reduced capacity as we are still working under many restrictions and catching up with treatments that were postponed due to Covid lockdown.

At weekends and public holidays our answerphone will give details of our emergency cover. This service will be available mornings only between 9 am and 12 pm.
Please appreciate that our nurses and receptionists are doing a great job under very difficult conditions and will always do their best to accommodate you.
We are grateful for your understanding and look forward to the time that we can welcome you back for routine dental appointments.
(Unfortunately our restrictions mean that we are seeing less patients per day and therefore we are still unable to offer check up appointments).

In the meantime have a lovely weekend and keep brushing and flossing 😁

⭐️⭐️⭐️ COVID UPDATE ⭐️⭐️⭐️

As we enter a period of new restrictions today we would like to reassure our patients that our practices remain open. If you have an existing appointment or if you have a problem we are still available to help you. You are permitted to leave home to attend medical and dental appointments.
Our waiting rooms are not in use so that we can maintain social distancing within the practices and we also have to open the windows to provide ventilation during certain procedures so we would advise you to wear warm clothing!
If you are in a vulnerable group or prefer not to leave home please telephone us as soon as possible and we will happily reschedule your appointment to a later date.
We hope you all remain safe during this difficult period and we hope to see you soon.

We have been working under very difficult conditions due to Covid-19 restrictions and our staff certainly deserve this well earned break. We would like to thank all our patients for their patience and support during this time and wish you all a very safe and happy Christmas 🎄
We would like to assure you that the lockdown in January does not affect dental practices so we will be open as normal.
We will be open on 30th December and then will be closed for New Year from 31st December. We re-open on Monday 4th January.
In cases of severe pain, trauma, bleeding or swelling registered patients can telephone the practice to be advised of emergency arrangements.
