We visited Great Wyrley dental practice on Thursday 23 May 2013. This visit was arranged in advance to ensure that we had time to speak with staff working at the practice. One full time and one part time dentist, two dental nurses/receptionists and a cleaner worked at this dental practice.

Great Wyrley dental practice provided all treatment necessary under the NHS. People were able to upgrade their NHS treatment to private treatment if they wished.

Following our visit we spoke with four people who had attended this dental practice for consultations or treatment for themselves and with other family members. People we spoke with were happy with the service provided at this dental practice. We were told that the staff were friendly and helpful. People we spoke with all said that they received the information they needed to make a choice about their dental treatment. One person said: "I would definitely recommend this dental practice I was always frightened of the dentist but they have put me at my ease". Another person said: "They have been brilliant the best dentist I have been to".

The dental practice was clean and there were arrangements in place to protect people against the risk of cross infection.
