CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC          Updated 03/08/2020

 

Most of our patients will have realised that the current pandemic makes normal dentistry challenging as our close proximity to each of you means that everyone is at increased risk. Most dental treatment involves the use of

scalers and drills which generate aerosols (AGP's). Coronavirus is easily transmitted by droplet and airborne viral

contamaination therefore AGP's are viewed as high risk.

We are not carrying out face to face treatment to make sure that everyone was safe but we are available to

give advice and if required and any prescriptions as appropriate. Top scientific advisors are still concerned about the relaxing of lock down as the prevalance and community spread of the virus is still high.  We are waiting to see how quickly the pandemic resolves, researching new types of PPE and air filtration systems. Hopefully we can

have everything in place to enable us to treat you in a safe environment. We are continuing to evaluate the

situation on a regular basis and when we do start we need to keep you, our staff and ourselves as safe as

possible. We are continuing to research how we can return safely to face to face treatment. There are new virus testing machines that might help us move forward!
