PRACTICE UPDATE

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ALL PATIENTS - LAST UPDATE 31/04/2024

Current State Of Dental Services

We regret to inform patients that we have been unable to recruit dentists to provide NHS care and have an extremely limited NHS service available. This service is subject to workforce availability.

Since our last update, the government and NHS England have thus far failed to act in a suitable manner to save NHS Dentistry. The changes implemented by the government last year to restart NHS Dentistry have been derided by the profession for not dealing with the core issues associated with the failed NHS dental contract.

Patients seeking long-term continuing care are advised to consider registration with the practice on a Private basis or our Denplan membership scheme.

More information about our services can be found on our practice blog page.

We would like to thank our patients for their understanding and cooperation in this matter and look forward to seeing them as they return to the dental practice.

We are experiencing a very high call volume, so please accept our apologies if we are unable to answer your call straight away. You are able to send us an email at hh@s3dental.co.uk or message us via whatsapp on 01444440123.

Please note that COVID-positive patients will not be seen for face-to-face appointments but we will endeavor to provide as much advice as we can.
