Important Information Regarding COVID-19

Updated: Thursday 13 January 2022

At No Gaps Dental we consider your safety our highest priority. We are closely monitoring the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak situation and are listening carefully to the questions and concerns we receive from our patients.

Dental care is an essential service, and our clinics remain OPEN to everyone, regardless of your vaccination status against COVID-19.

In light of the significant rising of COVID-19 cases in NSW, our practices, staff and dentists may be impacted by COVID-19 in the near future, and required to follow isolation rules.

If you have an existing appointment and our practice has been impacted by COVID-19, we will be sure to contact you immediately, and to reschedule your appointment to another time.

We do apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause, but the well-being of our patients, team and communities is our highest priority, and in line with public health advice, we’re taking all necessary steps to ensure your ongoing safety in our practices. We thank you for your understanding and co-operation during these uncertain times.

Please note that there are some changes to the way we operate to keep everyone safe and by coming to our clinics, you agree to follow these changes.

What treatments can we provide?

From Monday the 11th of October 2021, we are able to provide all types of dental treatment including routine hygiene appointments.

What changes have been made in our clinics?

When attending our clinics, please note the following:

  1. To reduce the number of people in our clinics, we ask that patients attend their appointment by themselves. For minors or those who require assistance, a limit of one person can attend with them
  2. All patients will be screened for their level of COVID-19 risk. This is in the form of a few simple questions on the day of their appointment.
  3. Until further notice, everyone in the clinic is required to wear a face mask except while receiving treatment in the dental chair. For instructions on how to wear a mask safely, please see below:

While we continue to uphold our strict hygiene and infection control standards, we have also implemented additional precautionary measures to minimise the risk of COVID-19 including, but not limited to the following:

    • Are ensuring that social distancing is practiced in our clinics. This means that we are limiting the number of people in the clinic based on the current NSW COVID-19 restrictions, and the chairs in the waiting rooms have been placed apart accordingly.
    • Have provided further training to our staff and dentists about infection prevention and control, specifically in relation to COVID-19, to ensure they are well equipped to work in this environment.
    • Have introduced additional measures including more frequent and thorough cleaning of shared spaces and the use of hand sanitiser for your use when entering and leaving the clinic.

Are your Dentists and staff vaccinated against COVID-19?

Yes, it is a requirement that all Dentists and staff working in our clinics are fully vaccinated.

Vaccination is the best way that we can keep a safe working environment for ourselves as well as our patients and break the chain of transmission.

What can I do to help stop the spread of COVID-19?
