Whether you have just moved into the area or are looking for a new dentist to meet your ongoing needs, we have put together a list of some of the key factors to consider when looking for a new dentist in Lewes.
Location
When looking for a dentist in Lewes, location of the practice can make a big difference to how easily you will be able to attend for appointments. Consider the practice location with relation to home and work, whether parking is available on site or whether you will need to walk some distance to the surgery and any other accessibility issues you may have. Ringmer Dental is situated on the main Lewes road, directly opposite the Village Green, with convenient parking nearby.
Hours
Dental practices now offer a wide range of opening hours in order to best cater for their patients’ schedules. Here at Ringmer Dental we will always do our best to find the most convenient time for you and your family to attend for appointments and have an out of hours’ service that you can be sure of getting advice and treatment in a dental emergency.
Infection Control Procedures
All dental practices are now governed by Care Quality Commission in the same way hospitals are and are bound by the rules of the Health Technical Memorandum 01-05. This provides strict rules and guidance on how all instruments are sterilised in between patients and how surgeries are cleaned to ensure that there is no risk of cross contamination.
Services
When looking for a new dentist it is important to consider the range of services that they are able to offer. Over the past few years there has been a change in the way dentists work with much greater emphasis on preventative and cosmetic dentistry. The cutting-edge dentistry we perform ensures that every visit is pleasant and productive, which is why we have a loyal patients base that have been coming to us for generations. We are able to offer a wide range of dental treatments including cosmetic dentistry, dental implants, teeth straightening and teeth whitening.
Fees
Although private dental fees may seem expensive, the above factors may well outweigh the cost of dentistry. Ringmer Dental is a mixed NHS and private practice and our current list of fees can be found on our website. Here at Ringmer Dental, we are also able to offer dental membership plans to enable you to spread the cost of routine treatment every month and 0% finance for those more extensive treatment plans.
