Hygienist appointments are available, but we are continuing to prioritise patients most at need for dentist appointments


1st April, 2021

Jonathan is back! Our hygienist, Jonathan McIlwraith, can provide your care on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from this week. If you are one of our regular patients, remember that you do not need to see a dentist first as you can see him on a private dentistry basis. If you would like a scale and polish or gum disease treatment appointment, please telephone the practice.

We are providing prioritised dentist appointments to patients at greatest need, and as we come out of this third lockdown we will continue to contact patients by phone if we previously had to cancel an appointment or we know that you need some treatment. There will be a further update once we have had chance to complete this phase as we know a lot of patients are waiting for routine care.

If you try to phone the practice and are unable to get through, please double check our opening hours and be aware that we are exceptionally busy currently, catching up with patients who need us urgently. If you have a dental emergency, please telephone as early in the day as possible as these slots are appointed on a first-come first-served basis. Thank you once again for understanding how dentistry has changed unrecognisably for everyone, and how our constantly updated policies and processes are keeping everyone safe.
