*St James Dental Surgery Announcement*

We would like to inform you that due to the COVID-19 outbreak we are currently unable to work as normal, following the latest government guidelines.

This is not a decision that we have taken lightly, but we feel it is our responsibility to protect you, our valued patients, our team and our families.

We have taken the difficult decision to cancel all appointments for routine examinations, treatments and hygiene appointments.

Please do not arrive at the practice unannounced.

We will be maintaining a telephone service for now, for advice and booking emergency appointments.

Dental emergencies include:

• Severe pain for over 48 hours
• Facial Swelling
• Trauma or uncontrolled bleeding

We apologise for any inconvenience and will resume a normal service, once we have been advised that it is safe to do so.

If your appointment needs to be postponed, one of the team will be in touch.

Thank you for all your support during these uncertain times.

Stay safe, keep well and we look forward to seeing you all soon.

Best Wishes from the team at St James Dental Surgery
