GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCEMENT ON THE RETURN OF DENTAL SERVICES IN ENGLAND.

We, like you, learned of the government’s plans for dental practices to re-open from Monday 8th June during the briefing. of the Prime Minister on the 28th of May

At the moment, and so that you are fully aware, only dental practices who can evaluate that they have the PPE (personal protective equipment) and IPC (infection prevention and control) requirements in place are allowed to welcome back patients. Fortunately, we at Smiles on Broadway have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to prepare for our re-opening, to ensure that it is safe for both patients and staff to return.

In light of the Prime Minister’s briefing, we will be in touch with our valued patients in the coming weeks about any further updates that will occur.

Whilst we prepare for our re-opening, however, we respectfully ask that you do not call the practice to book any routine appointments. Initial appointments will be prioritised for emergencies only

From all of us at Smiles on Broadway, we thank you for your patience through these trying times

Continue to remain safe and we will see you soon.

About your booking and appointments

Following the outbreak of COVID-19 things have changed for a lot of us. We at Smiles appreciate the changes many have had to make to their daily lives. With the changes to all our routines, we have introduced some new services which we hope you will find useful in the current pandemic.

We can now offer 3 choices of dental appointments.

1. Upload 6 photos (as directed) to our NEW Artificial intelligent dental system through our website. 

2. Once you have met the photo parameters submit to our AI system

3. Our AI system which has been developed over a number of years will review your photos and identify areas within your mouth that may need attention

4. The AI system will analyse your photos through its Artificial intelligence system 

5. Following the review, a report will be provided detailing the condition of your smile, teeth & gums (this does not diagnose pain)

6. Within the report you will be provided with options for your Smile, teeth & gum diagnosis, and how we may assist you in achieving these concerns.

Our second option is to have our Dentist look over your report with a 10 Minute VIDEO consultation to discuss the findings in the report (THIS MAY WELL SUIT PATIENTS THAT ARE SHIELDING)

Our 3rd Option is booking your dental appointments through our New ON-LINE Appointment book. Allowing you the freedom to choose an appointment time to suit yourself (appointments are currently restricted due to the Government restrictions imposed)
