Caringbah Dental Care - COVID-19 UPDATE

mom-and-daugther-apart-windowCaringbah Dental Care considers the health of its patients, staffs and dentists as our top priority.

None of our staff members have travelled in the past 6 months, other than New Zealand, and none of our staff currently has any symptoms or had contact with a case. We are self-monitoring our conditions and take a daily measurement of body temperature and use appropriate PPEs.

If you have dental emergencies and happen to be a confirmed COVID-19 case or before 14-day isolation period has passed or have symptoms, please ring your GP or local hospital (Sutherland Hospital, 02 9540 7111) for further direction.
