24.01.2022 Great reminders for all of us while we are safe at home

24.01.2022 If your kids are old enough to have a mobile phone, they are old enough to take care of their teeth. Here are three ways to help them get involved in their orthodontic treatment.

23.01.2022 Can you still eat your favourite foods? Do you need to get a referral? Were answering these questions and busting myths over on the website today.

22.01.2022 An orthodontic consultation is a great opportunity for you to discuss your concerns and hear about the multiple options a specialist orthodontist can offer to help

21.01.2022 We would like to apologise for the difficulties in trying to contact us by phone this week - Due to the NBN rollout we have had to change over our telephone system and some calls have been going silent as the changeover has taken place. If you have trouble contacting us by phone, please head to our website and email us via the Contact tab and we will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience and apologies again!

19.01.2022 The world is becoming an increasingly convenient place. But quicker doesnt necessarily mean better, especially when it comes to health care

19.01.2022 What teens can expect from their journey to their perfect smile.

19.01.2022 Good News: We are now moving to Level 1 restrictions! The Dental Board of Australia has announced that all dental practitioners in Australia can now move to Level 1 restrictions, and this announcement has been endorsed by the Chief Health Officer of WA. Level 1 restrictions mean all dental treatments using standard precautions can be performed for people who do not meet epidemiological or clinical risk factors for COVID-19 infection transmission. ... This is a significant step toward normality, however it does not yet mean we are back to business as usual. In addition to the rigorous infection control protocols we have always had before, we have applied hygiene rules such as social distancing in the clinic and the use of hand sanitisers which are readily available throughout our practice. Only patients are to enter the treatment area and we encourage parents and siblings to wait outside if possible. In the waiting room, we have taken away high-touch items that cannot be easily cleaned (toys and magazines, even our games console!) and self check-in using the touch screen will no longer be available, instead, please let our receptionist know when you arrive. We will reschedule your appointment if you have a fever or an acute respiratory infection such as a cough, shortness of breath or sore throat, or if in the past 14 days you have returned from overseas or interstate or been in contact with someone with Covid-19. Please ring us on 93074033 if you have any questions. Thank you to our lovely patients and their families for your support in this challenging time, and we look forward to welcoming you back to our practice!

18.01.2022 Hint: it is commonly used in Phase I treatments. Intrigued? Read on...

18.01.2022 To our lovely patients and families, Our practice has reopened today under the step-back to Level 2 Restrictions for dentistry whereby some routine orthodontic treatment can now be provided. We will be contacting those patients who require routine adjustments of their braces to schedule appointments. ... There are restricted procedures that we cannot perform at this time under current guidelines, and we will also contact those patients who are affected by these restrictions. We ask for your understanding in this matter as this is for the safety of our patients and staff and the community at large. Our practice is following the most up to date protocols mandated by the National Cabinet, and these restrictions are in place to reduce community infection risk as part of public health policy. If community infection and transmission rates continue to reduce, restrictions will be lifted further. We have your best interest and well-being at heart and your concerns will be attended to as soon as possible, once restrictions are lifted. We look forward to seeing you soon!

16.01.2022 Dear patients, families and friends, As you are aware our community is currently experiencing a truly unprecedented situation, and our Practice is also severely affected. I am acutely aware that the COVID-19 pandemic is causing significant and temporary interruptions to our normal working lives. We are all experiencing this for the first time together.... The Australian Health Protection Principal Committee, the key decision-making committee for health emergencies comprised of all state and territory Chief Health Officers and chaired by the Chief Medical Officer, has now advised that Level 3 restrictions be applied to all dental treatment. This means that clinical services have to be limited to emergency treatment only. Therefore, it has now become necessary to stop seeing our patients for all routine treatment. Both our clinics will be closed until further notice. Our reception and telephones will be unattended. We will resume regular patient care once we get the all clear from the government. I ask for your patience and understanding in this matter. If you require emergency treatment or have any questions, please write to Dr Pang by - Email: [email protected] or Website: www.whitfordcityortho.com.au (via the contact form) and he will respond to you as soon as possible. Please remain calm and be safe. Thank you.
