Covid 19 update for dentistry in Scotland

Updated 18/8/2020

Hello everyone

Another update on current dental services at this stage of the Scottish Government’s COVID-19 route map. Lots of work has been completed behind the scenes to prepare the surgeries and prepare our staff for the new protocols to keep everybody safe.

At this time, with the NHS restrictions still in place, we are permitted only to use aerosol generating procedures (using the dental drills) for relief of infection or pain. For example, using the drill during an extraction, or opening a tooth to drain an abscess.

Please note that routine use of the drill for placing permanent fillings, root canal treatments, crowns, veneers, bridgework, hygiene visits etc are not permitted under NHS regulations at this time.

We continue to see patients in restricted number everyday. If you are in pain or have any concerns with anything in the mouth then please call us on 01355 576074 or send us a message with contact details though the "contact us" button below.

We appreciate these NHS restrictions are causing frustration with patients unable to have treatments completed and have taken measures to enable us to provide private treatments, with appropriate enhanced personal protective equipment to protect everyone. If you wish to discuss this contact us for further details.

What to expect when you attend the practice?

New protocols for your safety and the safety of our staff will mean where possible, you must attend alone. If a chaperone is required or parent then one other person is the maximum. Unfortunately we cannot accommodate the wider siblings or family members.

You must arrive at your appointment time, you can remain in your car, if possible and we can call you when ready or limited waiting area space is available. The toilet facilities will be locked. A key will be available.

You will be met at the front door by one of our nursing staff (dressed in appropriate ppe) and will be asked to use hand washing facility or use alcohol rub on arrival. Then you will be taken straight through to see the dentist on duty that day.

Please bring any up to date medication list (repeat prescription) and be aware we are only able to take card payments at this time.

We really appreciate your patience and cooperation at this stage.

Whenever Scotland reaches Phase 4, we will be able to offer our usual range of services.

For the foreseeable future, things will be different when you come to the practice but we will endeavour to make these changes as easy and comfortable as possible for patients, and give you plenty of information in advance of your visit.

We would just like to take this opportunity to thank you all again, you have all been wonderfully sympathetic and understanding during this time and we really appreciate your support and co-operation. This has been a trying time for all of us and you’ve all been fantastic.

We continue to hope you are all safe and well. We will hopefully see you all soon !
