As part of our inspection we spoke with three people who were registered with the practice. We also spoke with the dentist and a dental nurse.

We reviewed five dental records. We also looked at the staff files and the policies and procedures.

People who used the practice told us that they were happy with the quality of treatment they received. They felt they were given enough information about their treatment options and were able to ask any questions that they wanted to.

People told us that the practice was clean and tidy and that they had no concerns about hygiene. The staff told us that regular infection control checks ensured that hygiene and cleanliness was maintained in clinical areas.

By looking through the staff records we were able to see that the dentists and staff were qualified and maintained their continuous professional development (CPD) as required by the General Dental Council (GDC).

Staff told us they felt they were supported by their managers through regular staff meetings and supervisions. The staff said that this helped them make sure their training and development needs were identified and addressed.

People were able to provide regular feedback. We saw that there were regular audits and quality checks by both the provider and external agencies. We saw evidence of actions being implemented from this.
