Following the news that there will be a national lock-down starting on Thursday, I am delighted to announce that dental practices are able to continue to provide face-to-face appointments. This news comes as a great relief because our experiences during the first lock-down confirmed that antibiotics, analgesia and advice can be ineffective for acute dental problems.
Thanks to the hard work and dedication of the team over the past 5 months, Derwent Dental Care has been providing a safe, effective and comprehensive service for which we have received fantastic feedback from our patients. The practice has continually reviewed and adapted its operating procedures and I am therefore confident that we can continue to provide our normal level of care throughout the next few difficult weeks.
