We are delighted to announce that we will begin to see patients from 15th June, as all members of our dental team have been retrained in new procedures and we have in place measures to keep patients and the team safe.

Please note:

· It will take some time before services return to normal and as we've been closed for routine care for over two months there will be a backlog of work that we'll need to prioritise.

· Patients who have found themselves in severe pain or in need of urgent treatment will initially be prioritised.

· Infection control has always been a top priority at our practice. Due to the nature of dental work, the risk of possible Covid-19 infection is high when we are carrying out Aerosol Generating Procedures (AGPs), where water from instruments produces a spray, for example drilling. This is why AGP treatments will initially be limited. However as time goes on this will not be the case, as PPE becomes more available.

· You will see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help protect our patients and staff.

We understand that patients will have questions and our friendly reception team will do their best to answer any queries you have.

Best wishes and good health
The Dental Team
