Dentists

[jennyjoan]

Are dentists closed this time

[-SharonA-]

I don't think mine ever opened!! Still closed with a big notice on door to call a certain number for treatment.

Last time I asked mine they had a backlog and were doing really urgent ones only

[bookbinder]

My dentist's practice is still open.

Mines open. I had a filling done a few weeks ago (No drilling though, just a replacement for one that fell out)

[Bazile]

Er indoors had a tooth attended to yesterday

I suppose it depends where you are

[Patsy33]

Open just for emergencies.

In England . . .
"The majority of public services will continue and you will be able to leave home to visit them. These include:

There appears to be nothing in the current rules for Northern Ireland, which apply up and including 10 December, to prohibit dental surgeries from opening normally:
