General dental practitioners have been limited to providing non-AGPs to non-COVID-19 patients with an urgent dental care need. Throughout this crisis period, many such patients have continued to receive face to face care in general dental practices. This has been a key element of ensuring that the urgent oral health needs of the Northern Ireland population have been met.
While it has been absolutely necessary to limit the number of patients seen in general dental practice in order to minimise the risk of Coronavirus transmission, this has unfortunately meant that there are a significant and growing number of patients with pressing oral health needs.
Fortress diagnostics Antibody test provides the solution to practices determine in resuming the much needed service. Using the test before appointments can determine a result within ten minutes protecting patients, dental staff and the public from the risk of acquiring the virus.
