*** COVID-19 UPDATE ***

Patients who have not been in touch with the practice since before the COVID pandemic are asked to contact us as a matter of urgency on 01656 733295.

PLEASE DO NOT ATTEND THE SURGERY WITHOUT SPEAKING TO US ON THE TELEPHONE FIRST 01656 733295.

We have been very busy working our way through a backlog of patients who need urgent dental treatment or who are at high risk of oral disease, prioritising patients on a needs basis. We are following national guidelines carefully, to ensure we see our patients in the safest way possible. This means extra time between patients, fewer patients in the building, extra protective equipment and a high-powered air-extraction system.

We are still facing some restrictions affecting treatments that generate an aerosol (drops in the air) such as fillings, crowns, root canal treatment, some treatments for gum disease. These restrictions may mean you will have to wait a little longer than usual before you are able to receive your treatment.

Our DENTAL HYGIENE service is up and running - appointments with one of our Dental Hygienists for a professional scale & polish at our Maesteg surgery can be booked by contacting the surgery.

There will be some elements of your appointment, such as questions about your health that will be completed over the phone before you attend the surgery, and some rules that you will need to be follow when you attend.  

We appreciate that this may be frustrating time for some people. Please be patient, and stay safe.

From all the team at Talbot Street Dental Surgery.
