Background

Since the Prime Minister announced social distancing measures to slow down the spread of COVID-19, a set of restrictions on daily activity to contain the spread of the virus were introduced.

All non-urgent dental activity has stopped in line with the changes to people’s everyday lives that the Prime Minister has signalled.
