More appointments available BUT continue wearing masks & CV-19 screening

More appointments available BUT continue wearing masks & CV-19 pre-appointment screening must as well. That’s the summary of changes the Chief Dental Officer has made to the dental guidelines for the coming months

Lockdown Restictions Easing Don't Currently Change Dental COVID Protocols

Investment in air safety / Increased appointment provision

We have recently been working towards adding high capacity extraction to our surgeries, which we can announce is now in place. Adding high capacity commercial air extraction units to all our 3 surgeries has now allowed us to reduce ‘fallow time’ between filling appointments to 20 minutes (from 60 mins)

COVID-19, Information, InvestmentAdmin27 July 2020safety, modernisation, COVID-19, update

Open NORMAL hours - Limited daily appointments

Having now managed to see & treat all those patients who were ‘suffering’ during lock-down we are now open normal hours and available to see our own patients on a ‘need basis’.

Please phone 864295 for appointments (or email info@eadp.co.uk if non-urgent) as we still have to operate with a locked front door.

CV-19 Update 14th May 2020. Still no Face-2-Face appointments available yet...

The Prime Ministers mild easing of ‘Lockdown’ on 13th May still does not allow us to offer face to face appointments at the practice. We are still offering phone 07375 875738, e-mail (info@eadp.co.uk) & Facebook messenger advice.

COVID-19 Update- ALL Dentistry Stopped

*** COVID-19 Update- ALL Dentistry Stopped ***

On 25/03/2020 the Chief Dental Officer of England instructed all dentists to cease ALL forms of 'face to face general practice dentistry' until such time as we could obtain PPE (personal protective equipment) such as masks/surgical gowns/face shields that were of the same standard as required by doctors in ICU (Intensive Care Units) due to risks to patients & dentists.

Practice Closed to all but pre booked EMERGENCIES ONLY

With regret, following new national guidance we will only be able to offer emergency treatment for the foreseeable future. This situation will be the same for all dental practices nationally.

This is to ensure your health, that of our staff, and to help promote social distancing for all.

ALL appointments for routine treatment and checkups will need to be CANCELLED until further notice.

Please note we are still operating relatively normally but you will be contacted by phone pre-appointment and if able to attend, you'll be asked to use our hand-gel on entry to our practice.

We are booking extra time between appointments to reduce your contact with others, and we ask you only attend by yourself or with one helper as a sensible precaution to both protect you and others.
