We have great news!
As of Monday 27 April, the Australian Government has eased restrictions for dental treatment to level 2! This means we can now provide a wider range of dental services in addition to emergency procedures. Over the next few weeks, we will be working hard to get in touch with our patients who have had to reschedule their appointments due to Covid-19.
Although restrictions have been eased, our team continues to observe strict additional infection control protocols to ensure the safety of our staff, patients and our wider community. Complimentary teledental consults are also still available to all of our patients to help guide and answer any questions that they may have.
For more information or to make an appointment, please call us on 9689 4477.
Thanks again for your support and understanding during this time!
Our team has put together a short video to update our patients about the COVID-19 situation. Stay safe!
Our thoughts are with the people who have been affected by this unprecedented event and we commend the healthcare workers around the world who are on the front line working to contain COVID-19 Coronavirus.
As you may have heard the Victorian Government is planning to implement a shutdown of all non-essential activity over the next 24 hours and we are currently working through what this means for our practice and our patients.
In the meantime, our clinic will be open and here to help you with any of your dental needs. We have previously been advised by the Federal Government that dentistry is considered an "Essential Service".
Our clinic continues to follow guidelines provided by the Government, Australian Dental Authority and local health authorities to protect the health and well-being of our patients and staff.
Thank you for your understanding, we will ensure to keep you updated. In the meantime please continue to practice social distancing, keep safe and be kind to one another.
Fine Smiles Dental want to lend our sympathy to those affected by COVID-19 Coronavirus.
Our practice has and always will strive to keep our patients and staff healthy by continuing to offer high quality dental care during our regular opening hours. At this time, we have no plans to restrict our hours or services. We also want to update you on the precautionary measures we have taken to protect the health and safety of our patients and staff:
Thank you for your understanding, we will ensure to keep you updated.
