COVID-19 Practice Guidance

To our valued patients
As you may have heard, dental surgeries can now open from the 8th of June. Like yourselves, we only found this date from Boris Johnsons press release and not by our governing bodies until after the fact. We were anticipating a phased reopening in line with previous guidance but this has come as a surprise. We are so glad we can finally help our wonderful patients who have been so supportive during this difficult time but we kindly ask you all to be extra patient with us.

We will be opening on the 8th but only after making sure we have the correct PPE to ensure the safety of our staff and patients, but as you are aware this has been very hard to come by. We have over the last 8 weeks been refurbishing the practice for our patients and are currently ensuring that we have all the correct measures in place... so we can treat you as safely as possible.

During this closure we now have a very large backlog of patients requiring urgent care and those who need their treatments finishing and this will have to take priority over routine check ups. Please bear with us over the coming weeks as we have hundreds of patients to reschedule and we kindly ask you not to contact the practice unless it is urgent. We will keep you updated on this website and on facebook.

Looking forward to seeing you all in our newly refurbished practice
