In line with government guidelines we have been delighted to welcome patients back to our practice for both emergency & routine non aerosol generating procedures (AGPs).

However, the majority of our treatments require aerosols & therefore the dental treatments that we can currently offer here at our practice are & will continue to be limited.

As we look towards the future, the First Minister has announced that dentists can offer urgent aerosol generating treatments from 17th August within a practice. However, in order to ensure that both patient & staff safety remains our top priority we will be carefully assessing any emergency AGP’s and a decision will be made on whether this treatment will take place at our practice or in the Urgent Dental Care Centre as before.

We hope to have more normality return to our practice in the near future, however safety is and will continue to be our number 1 priority as we follow all guidelines which means we are not quite there yet. We ask for your patience, understanding & co-operation as we move forward together and we will keep you updated as we do so.

NHS 24 will still triage out of hours emergencies, in which case please call 111.

However our advice is not to attend the Emergency Dental Service at the Glasgow Dental Hospital unless agreed through NHS 24 or if they have spoken to you at our request.

Thanks, from the Envisage team.
