Patients are initially triaged by the dental
helpline. Where a urgent or emergency appointment is required, patients will be
booked into their local EDS clinic.
Patients attending our clinics will usually
present with a range of urgent or emergency dental needs. A manageable number
of patient slots will be made available. Whilst it is a busy service, we find
with the experienced chairside support in place, teamworking and additional
support by an on-call senior nurse during clinic hours, our service runs
smoothly.
We encourage definitive treatment wherever
possible and expect clinicians to follow internal and external guidelines to
ensure good practice. We pride ourselves
on delivering a high standard of patient care.
