Rest assured that the health and safety of our patients and staff are our utmost priority.
Due to the Greater Sydney Lockdown affecting the Central Coast and the recent guidelines given to dental service providers by the Dental Council of NSW, all routine and non-urgent dental treatments are to be deferred at this time.
To do our part in limiting movement in our community, our services are restricted to the treatment of EMERGENCY and URGENT dental conditions only during the lockdown period.
It is a challenging time for all and it is our fervent prayer that we all remain safe and well amidst this worldwide health crisis.
We are operating with a very small team, but we are here to help our emergency patients on Mondays to Fridays from 8 am - 5 pm. This may change as we keep up with community and government updates.
