Caring for you during Covid-19
We hope you and your families are keeping safe and well during this difficult time.
**Please do not come to the Practice unless you have been advised to attend **
Carleton Dental Practice is open and safe.
Carleton Dental Practice will remain open in these unprecedented times.
Appointments are available for emergency treatment. Routine appointments are currently limited as we are experiencing an unusually high level of patients in pain.
These patients have to receive priority care over routine appointments. Please be patient as due to COVID- 19 restrictions we only have half the number of appointments available that we had pre-pandemic.
Telephone us on 028 3839 1700 / 028 3833 4672 to speak to our reception team.
The out of hours clinic at Craigavon Area Hospital is closed.

- Please inform the Dentist if you feel unwell (temperature/cough/shortness of breath)

- Please leave all unnecessary personal belongings in your car
- Come alone unless you are a child under 16 years or if you need support from 1 other person
