During a routine inspection
We saw that oral hygiene procedures, dental health promotion and risk factors such as smoking and consumption of high sugar content foods and drink were routinely discussed with the patient.
Both staff we talked with had a clear understanding of what constituted abuse and how they would react to concerns regarding safeguarding.
There were effective systems in place to reduce the risk and spread of infection.
Both staff provided us with evidence of their current registration with the General Dental Council.
The practice website listed information from an independent advocacy service that supported people to make complaints.
