We carried out this inspection to check on the care and welfare of people using this service. Our inspection was discussed and arranged two days in advance. This was to ensure that we had time to see and speak with the staff working at the practice, as well as people registered with the service.

We spoke with five people who attended the dental practice on the day of our inspection about their experiences of the service provided. With their permission we observed two of these people when they received treatment from the dentist. This enabled us to hear what information people were given about their dental health or any proposed treatment. We were also able to see how infection control procedures were carried out.

Everyone spoke well of their dental experiences one person said, “It is excellent, personal and high quality.” Another person told us, “I can't think of a better surgery, it is such good treatment. They look after you and make you very comfortable, I am never nervous here.”

People told us all the staff who worked at the practice were polite and respectful. They said the premises were always clean and hygienic.

We saw the staff were trained to provide people with appropriate care and dental treatment.

The service was well led, because the provider had systems in place to regularly assess and monitor the quality of the service. These systems were used to improve the quality of the service.
