We’re delighted to announce that all our Infinityblu practices are now open and we have restarted routine dental health reviews and hygiene services for all our patients whether on an NHS, private or Membership plan basis.
In addition to this, we have no restrictions on any level of Private care we can undertake within any of the practices, however, any aerosol dental treatments will still be required to be carried out with enhanced Personal protection equipment for the safety of our patients and the team.
In addition to dental health and oral cancer examinations, treatments we are able provide on a Private basis range from hygiene visits, dentures, crowns and bridgework, implant surgical and restorative treatment, orthodontics, facial aesthetics, tooth coloured fillings, root canal treatments, tooth whitening, cosmetic dentistry and extractions.
As per previous announcements, the Chief Dental Officer in Scotland is still NOT authorising any aerosol procedures on any NHS patient in general practice, except those of an urgent emergency basis, and limited to a maximum of 5 per day. Therefore, any non-emergency aerosol generating procedures carried out on any patients must still be on a Private basis.
To confirm, Private dentistry at Infinityblu can be carried out on all patients, including those registered with infinityblu under an NHS basis, and also any unregistered patients.
By offering this Private service at the Infinityblu practices for all our patients, we are now treating patients and completing any treatment outstanding before and during lockdown, treating patients with current dental problems, and carrying our routine examinations. Your dentist or dental nurse will explain your options and costs before undertaking any treatment.
The future of NHS dentistry in Scotland is unknown and likely not to return to the levels of care that can be offered pre COVID.
Due to the uncertainty of the future of NHS Dentistry in Scotland, we are recommending our Membership plans that we offer in all practices. From plans as little as £14.64 per month, we can tailor our plans to fit any budget, so you can benefit from having all your tooth coloured restorations, routine oral health checks, hygiene visits, root canal treatments, extractions, emergency visits and all other routine dental care included.
Plan members of our practices will receive private dental care free of charge (excluding laboratory fees, orthodontics and implants) and will have no charge for our enhanced personal protection equipment (non-members pay £20 per visit). The plans also cover dental injury and trauma cover, oral cancer pay out and worldwide dental assistance cover.
In the short period of time we have reopened, we have had numerous patients sign up for the plan. Please mention this to your dentist or a team member when you call or attend the practice. More information is available by clicking here.
We have been working through contact lists gathered over the last few months and going back through appointment diaries to try to re-schedule treatments that have been cancelled, however, WE ARE NOW ASKING YOU TO contact and arrange an appointment for your treatment to be completed, or book your routine dental oral health and oral cancer review at any of the practices. Please call on 0333 305 0886 to arrange your appointment. Please bear with us as the phones are incredibly busy, if you do not get through leave a voicemail and a member of our team will get back to you. Alternatively, please email us on info@infinitybludental.co.uk
We appreciate your patience during this transitional period and are confident we are now becoming comfortable with the new patient journey and gradually returning closer to our previous range of services.
We wish you and your loved ones ongoing health and well-being, and we are very much looking forward to seeing you again very soon.
