WELCOMES YOU

COVID-19 UPDATE

DEAR PATIENTS

​

WE ARE NOW PROVIDING ALL ROUTINE CARE. IN ADDITION, WE OFFER INVISALIGN BRACES AND PRIVATE CLEANING APPOINTMENTS WITH A HYGIENIST. 

​

PLEASE NOTE WAITING TIMES FOR CERTAIN TREATMENTS ARE LONGER THAN PRE-COVID AS WE ARE STILL WORKING THROUGH OUR BACKLOG OF NON-URGENT TREATMENTS.

​

WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU HERE AGAIN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

​

OUR BEST WISHES, 

DR RESHMA SHAH, DR DANIEL EARP AND TEAM ADCC

​

BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT

We are currently reminding by telephone as so many patients are failing to attend their appointments. Please contact us if your number has changed or you have any queries about your visit to us.
We ask you to cancel your appointment in advance if having any Covid symptoms & self-isolate & get tested.

ON THE DAY OF YOUR APPOINTMENT

Before you depart for the practice, we ask that you have already visited the lavatory, have ensured that you are hydrated and already brushed your teeth. When you arrive outside, don your face mask. 
To minimise risk, please ensure you attend your appointment alone unless you require assistance or are accompanying a child or someone vulnerable. We are encouraging card payments only so where possible, please do not arrive with cash.

ENTERING THE PRACTICE

Please enter the practice 10 minutes early. Once you have come into reception, sanitise your hands. Read the Covid questionnaire sign on the desk and tell the receptionist your answers. Our practice colleagues will wear masks or protective face visors for the safety of everyone. You will then be guided to the appropriate treatment room.

TREATMENT

Upon entering the treatment room, place any loose belongings like your coat or bag on the designated chair/hook provided. Our teams will be wearing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as in order to provide you with the right care and service, they cannot adhere to social distancing recommendations. Naturally we are also ensuring that each treatment room is carefully cleaned and disinfected after each patient.

AFTER THE APPOINTMENT

When your treatment is complete, put on your face mask, then collect your belongings. We will require payment ideally by card.

Before you leave the practice, you will be given hand sanitiser one last time, before we say goodbye. If you have any lengthy questions after the appointment, we will be able to call you to discuss this further as our aim is to minimise your time in the practice, for your own safety.

WELCOMING YOU BACK SAFELY

We hope that the above reassures you when visiting us that every step has been taken to ensure the safety of you, our colleagues and clinicians. We have resumed most routine services but waiting times for certain treatments are much longer than pre-Covid because of the backlog of work caused by the pandemic.

If you have any questions at all regarding our new practice experience, please do not hesitate to contact us.

EXCELLENT

DENTAL TREATMENTS

The main focus of our practice is preventive dentistry; we look at your diet, lifestyle and oral hygiene to prevent problems arising and maintain a lovely, healthy mouth. If there are problems, we are experienced at dealing with them from gum disease and jaw joint pain through to cosmetic work. Bad breath, headaches and a lack of confidence in your smile are all treatable.
We offer NHS care as well as private care and have an easy payment scheme in place for you to become a private patient, either for all your dental treatment or hygiene only. This offers great value and you will receive the benefits of longer appointments with your dentist/hygienist, free emergency appointments and a worldwide and UK dental insurance policy as well as discounted treatments.

KINDNESS

AND COMPASSION

Coming to the dentist is often an anxious experience but we enjoy creating a great atmosphere at Abbeydale Dental Care, one that is friendly, calm and relaxed with a bit of fun and laughter thrown in! We are gentle in our approach and take time with you. Gone will be the days you dreaded going to the dentist.

HOLISTIC

APPROACH TO YOUR OVERALL HEALTH

We are interested in your general medical health as well as oral health and are passionate about bringing all of this together, giving advice or referring as appropriate. Diet and nutrition, medications, lifestyle, exercise habits, mindfulness and yoga are just some of the things we can discuss with you. Particularly in the private, longer appointments, we spend time getting to know you, which gives us a clearer picture. We can then help you be the happiest, healthiest version of you.
