Despite the current circumstances, things at Byways continue with very little change. We arrived and were seen promptly, the staff were welcoming and courteous as ever, and both dental exam and hygiene treatment were completed as thoroughly as ever.

I was totally put at ease by the measures in place at the surgery to keep me safe. Clear instructions from Stephanie on reception and Amita carried out the work needed with all the appropriate PPE required to keep me and herself and staff safe.

I am very concerned that the cost of a hygienist appointment is now so high. In previous visits it was possible to have a shorter appointment for about £40 which I felt was much more affordable.

Reply from Byways Dental Practice

Good Afternoon
Thank you for your feedback. Please let me start by saying sorry for not responding sooner but since we returned to the practice the whole team has been working hard to reopen. When we were given the great news that we could return to the practice we needed to make sure we mobilised in the safest way possible. This has meant that changes needed to be made to the day to day running of the practice. One area that we had to address was the length of our appointments as the government gave some very important and strict rules for all Dental practices to adhere to. One area was an increase in staff and patient protection along with increased Infection control measures. This is unfortunately why we had to remove the 20 minuet Hygienist appointments as we can no longer complete the treatment and still adhere to the regulations. Byway has always and still is committed to the safety and welfare of both our patients and staff. Since we took over in 2017 our hygienist fees have not increased but due to the pandemic, some ways of former working needed to change.

My teeth are not in the best of shape, however after 1 hour with the hygienist here, I’ve seen an amazing improvement, they’ve not looked this good for a long long time. Recommended to all.
