During an assessment under our new approach

We carried out this on-site, announced assessment on 9 October 2024. During this assessment observations and clinical discussions between our dental advisor and the practice team were carried out remotely. We found the practice had met regulations. Recruitment procedures reflected current legislation and there was effective leadership and a culture of continuous improvement. Patients were treated with dignity and respect and at the time of our assessment, could access care, support and treatment when required. Patients’ care and treatment was provided in line with current guidance and infection control procedures were in place. The practice had systems to manage risks.
