Temporary PPE Charges
Temporary PPE Charges
Here at Riverside Dental, we believe in complete transparency. We have spent most of the lockdown period ensuring we have all the necessary Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) to ensure we are compliant with all legislation to keep all our patients and team safe.
Due to the cost of it, we have no option but to pass most of it onto our patients, hopefully only temporarily. We have separated it into 2 levels as advised by our regulatory bodies:
- PPE Level 1: For procedures that do not generate any aerosols (non-AGP’s)
- PPE Level 2: For procedures that do generate aerosols (AGP’s)
PPE Level 1: £3 per appointment
Includes: Enhanced fluid repellant surgical mask for clinician and nurse, splash-proof visors, aprons, new anti-viral cleaning products, mask for reception staff, mask for each patient
PPE Level 2: £14 per appointment
As for Level 1 but also includes Filtering Face Piece 2 or 3 (FFP2/3) enhanced mask, surgical gowns, ant-viral misting solution used to clean down surgery after appointment
If, and when, the additional levels of safety are no longer required the charges will be removed.
We thank you for your understanding at this time

Management Team
Please note the above charges take into consideration both single-use and re-usable items and the VAT that we have to pay (but cannot charge patients for)
