During an assessment under our new approach
We found the practice had met regulations.
Patients’ care and treatment was provided in line with current guidance, and infection control procedures were in place.
The practice had systems to manage risks.
Recruitment procedures reflected current legislation and there was effective leadership and a culture of continuous improvement.
Patients were treated with dignity and respect and at the time of our assessment, could access care, support and treatment when required.
PerioCare is in Ilford, East London and provides private and a small amount of NHS dental care and treatment for adults and children. Alongside general dentistry, the practice provides specialist periodontal services, which is the treatment and management of gum disease.
There was step-free access to the practice and car parking spaces were available near the practice.
The practice had 3 treatment rooms, but only 2 were in use during our assessment. During the assessment we spoke with the principal dentist, who was a specialist in periodontics, 2 dental nurses, who were also receptionists, and the practice manager.
