Our practice will communicate with you to ask some screening questions.
UPDATE – 26th JANUARY 2022
You may have heard that dental practices can open to routine care.
Our practice will be opening but we just wanted to be clear that this may not be business as usual. The treatments you are offered may be different to those you received before. It will take some time before services return to what you previously experienced as normal.
The country has been through a lot over the last few months, and all of us are looking forward to resuming our normal habits and routines. While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety.
Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice and you may have seen this during your visits to our surgery.
Our infection control processes are made so that when you receive care, it’s both safe and comfortable.
We want to tell you about the infection control procedures we follow in our practice to keep patients and staff safe.
Our practice follows infection control guidelines made by the governing bodies.
We are up-to-date on new guidance that has been issued. We do this to make sure that our infection control procedures are current and adhere to recommendations.
You may see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help protect our patients and staff.
For example:
We will do our best to allow greater time between patients to reduce waiting times for you, as well as to reduce the number of patients in the reception area at any one time.
How you can help:
Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Gentle, pain-free private dentistry, performed in a relaxed, friendly and caring environment
Dr. Robert Bland, the owner of Wrea Green Dental Practice, qualified in dentistry at Liverpool University in 1985. He spent his first four years working in the Manchester area before opening his first practice in Fleetwood in 1990. Within 10 years Robert had built up a group of practices in the Blackpool area which were acquired by a corporate dental chain.
During the period 2003-2009, Robert purchased a small practice in Warrington, an area he knew well having been at school there. However, when the opportunity to buy a practice In the Fylde arose on 2009 he moved quickly so that he could be back on home ground again.
Having lived for many years in Wrea Green, Robert had always dreamed of owning the village practice and so when the previous owner John gave him first refusal to buy, it was an opportunity Robert could just not resist.
Professionally, Robert gained the Diploma of Membership from the Royal College of Surgeons of England in 2008. He followed that by achieving his Masters Degree in Dental Implantology at Sheffield University, carrying out original research on the prevention of surgical site infections. Robert was awarded The Fellowship in General Dental Practice by the Royal College of Surgeons in 2014, their highest award. Robert is also a Fellow and an examiner for the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, a Fellow of the Faulty of Dental Surgery of the Royal College of Surgeons of England and acts as an expert witness for the General Dental Council. In 2020 Robert obtained a Masters Degree in Medical Law.
With over 30 years of experience and with those higher qualifications, Robert carries out his dentistry with gentleness and care, using the latest technology and expertise that his patients expect. He and his team are trained to carry out the most demanding of cases in peaceful and relaxing surroundings.
Please phone for a consultation appointment when we can offer friendly advice about your dental treatment.
