Daily life for everyone around the world has changed dramatically in a short space of time. As things begin to normalise it is important that we reflect and try to adapt to ensure that we take control and change the things we know will keep us safe. Things like washing your hands regularly and thoroughly and avoiding unnecessary travel or contact with others.

Your oral health continues to be important and although we should be more cautious going forward, we should not let recent events cause us to neglect this.

At Dee Dental Paisley the most important thing is patient safety and comfort, and that is why we have introduced the following measures to keep people safe while at the practice.

We will be booking your appointments to ensure that the Practice and waiting areas are not overcrowded. We will do this by leaving suitable gaps between appointments, making sure that you can attend the practice while maintaining a suitable distance from one another in accordance with government guidelines.

We will also be creating clinics for patients who are most vulnerable, to help minimize contact with others for this group whilst they are at the practice.

To further avoid overcrowding when you arrive at the practice, we ask that you attend alone for all appointments.

You will be required to fill in all relevant forms on your mobile phone or computer and links will be sent for this with your regular reminder email and texts days before entering the practice. This means that you will not have to touch a pen, paper, or any electronic device other than your own when you attend your appointment. This crucial step greatly reduces touch points at the practice so please carry this out.

To check in you will have a QR code generated after filling out the above please use this to check yourself in at the main reception desk on the tablet. Please let us know of any issues filling out the above.

And finally, as you leave the practice, we will ask that you pay by card, preferably contactless. We also have split payments schemes in place and finance so let us know if you require this service.

If you have any further questions about these measures, or anything else prior to your appointment, please contact us.

Please remember that for dental emergencies you can contact the Practice, where we can advise you on the best course of action. For your complimentary virtual consultation contact us today for Invisalign, braces, facial aesthetics or smile makeovers!

Yours Sincerely,

Dee Dental Paisley
