******* Dental Practice – COVID-19 Update 15/06/20******

To Our Dental Patients,

We continue to remain open and are now seeing patients that require emergency care at the practice.

This is by appointment only following a triage with one of our Dentists over the phone.  

Initially we’ll need to give priority to those of you with dental emergencies that have been waiting for urgent treatment then we will be moving toward those of you with treatment plans awaiting essential care then eventually we hope to move on to routine dental examinations and treatment.

We’ll keep you all posted here on our plans as we move through these phases.

For further information on attending the dental practice and what to expect, use the ”dental”  tab at the top of this page and look at the pages providing information. You can also view our opening hours.

In the meantime, our staff and clinicians are still manning the phones to answer your queries, offer dental self-help advice, oral health and hygiene advice, and arrange to see you for your dental emergencies on 01663 736301.

We are very much looking forward to resuming more routine services in the future and welcoming all of you back.

We want to reassure you we have followed strict infection control, risk assessment and health and safety measures provided by the Chief Dental Officer, Government Agencies,  Dental Governing and Representative Bodies to ensure we treat you safely during the Covid-19 Pandemic and that our staff are also kept safe.

The Goyt Valley Dental Team

*******May 11th Covid-19 Update*******

The Dental Practice remains open for telephone triage.

If you have a dental emergency or would like oral health advice please call the practice on 01663 736 301

We regret that we are still unable to offer routine dental treatment until we are advised by Public Health England and NHS England.

We are conscious that many of you are keen to resume your dental treatment so we will be sure to keep you updated if this situation changes

*******March 26th COVID-19 Update********

Given the unprecedented situation in the UK regarding the rapidly spreading COVID-19 virus, we are following guidance from NHS England and the British Dental Association acting in the best interests of our patients and staff.

It is essential we do our part to reduce the spread of this virus, regretfully this means we have to cancel ALL routine dental examinations and treatment until further notice. The Practice will still be operating a limited service to assist those requiring acute emergency dental care and will remain open to triage emergency patients and offer advice initially by telephone. Our staff will be available by telephone during surgery opening hours to assist you. 

We will keep you updated with the latest information on our website and also on the Goyt Valley Medical and Dental Practice Facebook page

We will be operating an Emergency Telephone Consultation service for our patients who have acute pain or facial swelling.  If you urgently need assistance, please telephone us on  01663 736 301. Please telephone first thing in the morning to secure a telephone consultation should you require one.

We apologise if you are waiting for routine treatment, please rest assured that as soon as it is safe to do so we will continue to provide you with this care. In the meantime you are welcome to call us with a view to any Oral health Advice you require.

There is further information available for you on the following pages:

Thank you for your understanding,

The Goyt Valley Dental Practice Team

Dental

At Goyt Valley Dental Practice we provide a wide range of dental services.

The practice has been built to provide dentistry for your community – who have previously found it difficult to access NHS dentistry and our aim is to provide people with an excellent service.   As we increase the numbers of staff who work at the practice – more people will be able to access our services – please be patient.  If you already have an NHS dentist or a private dentist that you are happy with please remain with them.  If you have only just finished a treatment cycle with your own dentist – again wait until you require another check-up before contacting us.

Our aim is to provide a happy relaxed atmosphere in which health promotion and a team based way of working allow us to provide the community that we treat with excellent Oral Health.
