All dental care provided is of a consistent quality
Effective measures of infection control are used based on advice given by the British Dental Association

We have a system to ensure that all legal requirements relating to radiological protection ( x-rays) are satisfied. Digital Images are now used which reduces patient dose for safety and improves our diagnostic skills.

Some patients may have concerns about personal information held at computer databases, however, we are fully registered with the Data Protection Registrar and confirm to the regulations concerning the holding of patients records on computer and manual form under the Data Protection Act.
- As a patient, you are entitled to inspect any information we hold with respect to your patient record. Under the Data Protection Act, we may make a charge for doing this and currently we are able to provide copies of patient's records within ten working days for a charge of £20.00
Consultation with our staff through the medium of regular meetings
Continued professional development for all clinical members of the practice in line with the General Dental Council's requirements.
Continued training for all staff, appropriate to the needs of the practice and our patients
