Dentists ordered to close

[BrilloPad]

well, there're plenty of those on CUK

Imagine if all aerosols were stopped on CUK. Especially the biggest aerosol of the lot.....

I was told by mine they are stopping all but emergency treatment, and they are not allowed to use drills so it will be temporary fillings etc.
They are going to offer remote appointments and will be able to issue prescriptions or send you to specialist dental locations who have the required PPE/training.

Both the wife and I each have a problem tooth we've been trying for ages to get sorted out so fingers crossed. Tooth-pain without treatment won't kill you but it's pretty bad.

My Mum, in her 70's, has been told that all non-urgent appointments have been cancelled by her Dentist. Unless you are in pain, they won't see you.

Same over here. My cataract operations have been cancelled as they're not urgent.

Is it safe?

Sorry to hear that.

Sorry to hear that.

Could you use a bigger font please.

I should say they've been postponed indefinitely. Not cancelled.
