Covid

Covid 19 has had a significant effect on how care is delivered to patients.

From the very beginning of the crisis back in March, we remained open to support our patients with remote triage, Zoom meetings and telephone support. We were not allowed to see people in the practice, but our teams worked tirelessly to offer support and help to all our patients.

We have been seeing patients for face to face visits and we have adjusted our work patterns to ensure that when you visit us, you are in a safe and healthy environment.

We have had to put special measures in place to protect the health and safety of staff and patients, which means we see less patients than normal each day.

Unfortunately this has meant some delays to appointments and some treatments are now taking longer to complete. Below is some advice to help you during this period.

Frequently Asked Questions

Queries about your brace
If you have any concerns about your brace we are happy to talk to you and offer advice. Our contact details are at the bottom of this page. Please see the Frequently Asked Questions below for answers to some common queries.
How will the changes affect my treatment?
It is important that you look after your braces between appointments. This will ensure you get the best possible outcome from your treatment. Your visits to the practice may be further apart but this will not affect the outcome.
What happens when I come to the practice?
If you are happy to come on your own, this would be best. If not, please don’t bring more than one other person with you. Please don’t bring any elderly relatives for their own safety.

Please try to arrive at the time of your appointment to avoid waiting around. You may be asked to wait outside, so please dress appropriately for the weather conditions on the day.

You MUST WEAR A FACE MASK when you are in the practice and should use alcohol gel when you arrive and leave.

All our staff follow strict infection prevention protocols for all patients.

Please don’t be worried if we are wearing masks or other protective equipment you have not seen before.

I had my top and bottom teeth straightened at this orthodontist. I found the whole process a good one from start to finish. The staff are all lovely and the receptionists are very helpful. I would recommend this Orthodontic practice. My teeth are lovely now and I do get comments about them.

K Ann

Absolutely thrilled!!! My son age 12 started here one year ago and I cannot believe the difference. Easily accessible, wonderful friendly staff who are always there if you need any help. The orthodontist made him feel very relaxed and would not hesitate to recommend this surgery to anyone.

K Hasid

I have always been nervous visiting dentists and in the past have often cancelled appointments, however with the reassurance given from the friendly staff at links I haven’t felt the need to cancel. The staff are also very accommodating with my appointments. I love my new smile and the confidence it has given me.

E Gray

We could not be happier with my daughter’s smile after her treatment. Appointments were easily made and consideration was always taken to make sure that my daughter didn’t always miss school. Friendly staff, appointments always on time and not once cancelled in two years! Amazing service.
