COVID-19 Update:
Following government updates on the current coronavirus situation, we wanted to reassure you about attending the practice.
Dental appointments are not social interactions and are vital for the health of your teeth, gums and mouth, preventing more serious problems in the future. Therefore we encourage you to continue to attend your dental appointments.
________________________________________________
The only reasons you should not attend your appointment are:
a high temperature – you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (temp above 37.8)
a new, continuous cough – this means you've started coughing repeatedly
See full advice on self isolation on the NHS website
____________________________________________________________________________
We are continuing to provide a safe environment for you by making sure our premises are cleaned and disinfected regularly, and as always our dental equipment is sterlised to the highest standards.
To protect staff and other patients we are also screening patients to make sure they do not have any symptoms prior to their appointment, including taking temperatures via a non-contact thermometer.
We are keeping up to date with government and NHS guidance and will keep you all updated on our website and social channels.
