Advice about Endodontic treatment during Coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19)

Your Health, Safety and Comfort are of paramount importance to us.

In light of the current outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19), and given the unprecedented situation in the UK, we felt it was important to update you on the provision of your endodontic treatment in these circumstances.

COVID-19

We would like to reassure you that we are continuing to keep our highest standard of disinfection and infection control as we work in an environment where the universal prevention of the spread of infections and diseases is built into our daily practice. Our team members are well trained in this field to keep you and the team safe. In fact, Dentistry has always remained ahead of the rest of the primary healthcare workforce in the development, implementation and delivery of the strictest infection control policies including disinfection, decontamination, sterilisation and cross infection control. In addition, the use of PPE within dentistry has always been one of the most stringent due to the nature of our profession.

We also closely follow the latest advice provided by the government on this issue. In the current situation, advice may change on a daily basis. We will be adhering to social distancing guidelines for our patients and as a result some aspects of our patient journey may change to reflect this. We shall endeavour to communicate with you fully as we go forward.

Therefore, we would be grateful if you would

· Follow the most up to date guidance provided by the government.

We have provided a hand sanitizer for you, which is located at the reception desk. Please use it when you arrive and before you leave the practice.

Stay healthy and safe.

Thank you for your understanding and support,

Best wishes
Edinburgh Endodontist Team
