Restart of dentist services in – access to emergency and routine treatment 17 August 2020

Introduction

In the first two weeks in August 2020 we looked at the information about dental services available at Coventry dental practices following their reopening to patients.

NHS announced that dentists could re-open to patients from the 8 June 2020. However after being closed for so long there is a backlog of patients needing treatment and dental practices have to operate using PPE to ensure that treatment is safe and does not spread the Covid-19 virus.

We gathered information from dentist’s websites where they had them and made phone calls to the practices which did not have dedicated websites.

What we found

The information below was correct at the time we produced this report however the situation is changing and therefore the services available from individual dental practices are likely to change.

We gathered information from 31 of the 33 local dental practices in Coventry.

25 dentists provided information that they treat NHS patients or some categories of NHS patients. Most of these are taking new NHS patients, but this may be for emergency treatment only.

4 of the NHS dental practices are doing routine dental treatments as well as emergency work and one is doing routine treatment but not scale and polish.

17 NHS dental practices are treating dental emergencies. A further 2 are providing phone advice. The information for one practice was not clear.

10 dentists do not have a dedicated website. The website of one practice was not working. Information about dental practices should also be kept up to date on the NHS website: www.nhs.uk/ where there is a find a dentist search facility. However, most entries had not been updated to take into account the Covid-19 situation.

Therefore, phoning dental practices is the most effective way of finding out information about their services.
