We would like to reassure all our patients that most dentists are fully aware of all current government advice for healthcare professionals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will\nappreciate that as a dental practice we work in an environment where the\nprevention of the spread of a whole range of infections is woven into\neverything that we do. Clinical sterilisation and disinfection procedures will\ncontinue at our normal high standard as a routine. We have also increased the\ndisinfection of non-clinical areas, door handles, bathrooms and public areas in\nthe practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before attending the practice for your next appointment we would be grateful if you would review the most up to date government guidance \u2013 just click the link https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/conditions\/coronavirus-covid-19\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
