Safety and Precautions for COVID-19

A message from Dr Ariakish

We wish to assure all patients that we are fully aware of the latest advice issued by Public Health England regarding the spread of COVID-19 Coronavirus and understand the growing concerns.

Please be assured that as a dental clinic we operate with the highest level of cross infection control, hygiene and cleanliness at all times. We will continue to uphold maximum levels of cross infection control and have taken the necessary precautions to ensure COVID-19 policies are in place.

We have worked hard to create a safe place for you to have your treatment with peace of mind. From automatic air disinfectants to 80% alcohol hand gels, shoe covers, extractor suctions, and many more improved ways to safeguard your health.

A COVID-Secure Practice

• All clinical staff wear the most up-to-date protective equipment to set a benchmark in the standards of patient care.
• All dental equipment and surfaces are regularly cleaned, sanitised and covered to stop cross infection.
• We only see a limited number of patients per day in order to have enough time in between appointments for an exceptionally effective decontamination.
• The air is continuously purified in each room and the reception area using state-of-the-art filtering and disinfecting technology.
• We regularly test our waterlines within the practice to make sure there is no harmful bacteria.

Ensuring Your Safety

We ask that if you have returned from travel in the last 14 days, or have been in contact with anyone with coronavirus, you contact the clinic prior to attending your appointment.

When visiting us, please follow standard prevention guidelines:

• Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve when you cough or sneeze and dispose of tissues immediately.
• Wash your hands with soap and water often or use hand sanitiser gel.
• Avoid close contact with people who are unwell.
