Sarah Roots

Lead Dental Technician

GDC Number: 156060

everything under one roof = same day dentistry = less downtime for you

As with everything we do here at the clinic, we do it for our patients. That’s why we are really proud to have our own employed dental technicians working on-site in our digital laboratory. Sarah Roots who has extensive knowledge and invaluable experience as a dental technician gained over 25 years, is in charge of the laboratory. Sarah works closely alongside our team of leading surgeons and enables us to undertake all patient treatments in-house and same day too!

What does this mean for the patients ?

Unlike many other dental clinics, our dental surgeons do not need to send our patients laboratory work out to be undertaken across town – or maybe even across the country – coming back a few days or weeks later for final placement.

It is extremely rare and unique for a dental clinic to have not only sophisticated technology on-site but experienced dedicated dental technicians too.

We use only the finest of materials alongside world class sophisticated technical equipment. This allows for exceptional technical craftsmanship to achieve both exacting standards and the perfect colour matching and aesthetics. This is tailored to the highest patient specification which as a multi award winning digital facility, is something that we are truly renowned for. Nothing less will do

What are the patient benefits ?

• same day dentistry = less downtime for you
• all patient restorative and dental work = dealt with on-site the same day
• our surgeons & on-site technicians = patients exacting requirements are dealt with there and then = no delays
• our surgeons & on-site technicians = working much more closely together and under “one roof”
• any lab work changes required = same day & no delays with lab work being returned off-site to external lab to address changes
• patient input = both surgeons & technician on-site to discuss & address with patient there & then = no delays with lab work being returned off site to external lab
• world class and extremely sophisticated digital equipment = precision & exceptional quality
• patients have the choice to watch their own restorations being made = fully involved at all times
• final placement of dental work = same day & no delays

Want to know more ?

Take a look at our digital laboratory and watch a crown being digitally made using same day dentistry in our on-site laboratory. It’s super amazing technology and fast !

Can patient’s meet the Dental Technician ?

Yes, of course you can. As our dental technicians work very closely alongside our surgeons all under one roof here at the clinic, you will certainly have the opportunity to meet them too. We find this invaluable for our patients, as it’s an opportunity for all those involved in such extremely important aspects of our patients journey, to meet, talk face to face and which enables patient’s exacting requirements to be met and fulfilled on time.

Decontamination Infection Control Team (DICL)

Our Antimicrobial Copper-Alloy Clinic Handles

All clinical assistants take responsibility for the tasks on a rota system. This way we can ensure that each clinical assistant knows exactly what to do. It also ensures that if someone calls in ill or takes leave we have other trained and fully competent dental care practitioners in place who can take responsibility immediately and without constant supervision. Contingency plans make sure that as a multi award winning clinic, recognised for many awards but in this instance best patient care, DICL always runs as smoothly as possible. This ensures that patient care is not adversely affected by any HR issues.

The team are led by our lead clinical assistant, who is responsible for creating task rotas. These rotas ensure that all the necessary steps are taken during the course of the day. This ensures regular reports are maintained and kept as part of our record-keeping. This is our evidence to show that we are meeting all required standards and ensuring that our patients and our team members are protected from healthcare associated infections (HCAI).

Our lead clinical assistant is responsible for carrying out induction training with all new employees who join the team, and for training and monitoring trainee nurses who have just started their training. We also engage our dental surgeons and ask for regular feedback to ensure that what has been taught is being implemented consistently.

OUR HANDLES THROUGHOUT THE CLINIC REDUCE HARMFUL MICROBES

As a leading facility, we really do go that extra mile for our patients care. Throughout the clinic we have antimicrobial copper-alloy handles which prevent frequently touched surfaces from serving as reservoirs for the spread of pathogenic microbes. The surfaces of copper are antimicrobial. They have an inherent ability to kill a wide range of harmful microbes relatively rapidly and with a high degree of efficiency. These antimicrobial properties have been demonstrated by an extensive body of research. The research also suggests that if touch surfaces are made with copper alloys, the reduced transmission of disease-causing organisms reduce infections by as much as 58%.

We really do care.

Dr Rajeev Jeevananthan

MBBS BSc (Physiology & Pharmacology) Hons FRCA

Specialist Anaesthetist

GDC Number: 6155797

Dentistry - Drift away from pain and anxiety

Unlike many dental clinics, we are privileged to have our very own resident (specialist) Anaesthetist, Dr Rajeev Jeevananthan MBBS BSc (Hons) FRCA. Also a well known and entirely respected Mentor in Anaesthesia covering the South Coast alongside his teaching and training skills of junior colleagues.

Your care in the hands of a specialist doctor

Anaesthetists are specialist doctors who are responsible for providing anaesthesia to patients for operations and procedures. They are doctors who have chosen after qualifying to undertake postgraduate specialist training of at least seven years in anaesthesia, intensive care medicine and pain management. Rajeev has the same passion and ethos as the rest of our highly experienced team members:

• We listen to you and understand your concerns
  
• We provide excellence in treatment and quality which is tailored to your needs
  
• We make you feel absolutely comfortable and at ease throughout the whole treatment process
  

If you are anxious or nervous when visiting the dentist then sedation can be very helpful to keep you relaxed and calm during your appointment.

What is the process ?

When receiving sedation you will be fully informed beforehand of any potential side effects and given advice to help with your recovery. Firstly, Rajeev will meet with you personally in one of our luxurious consultation suites, entirely away from anything clinical as we really do understand how important this is for you. Rajeev will then talk you through each stage of the process but will also encourage you to ask any questions you may have, no matter how small. A pre-assessment will then take place and again, will be taken at your own pace. You will then also be shown our dedicated recovery suite where you will be taken after your treatment has taken place along with your chaperone. Our recovery suite has its own dedicated electronic medical bed where you will be able to relax in total comfort with your chaperone beside you. We are here for you and as a team that works extremely closely together with all our patients, you will be looked after and genuinely cared for every step of the way.

Will I need to have someone accompany me ?

When having treatment under sedation you will require a chaperone to attend with you and collect you following your appointment. Can anyone have sedation ? Our sedation services are available for both adults and children to ensure that you are as comfortable as possible during your treatment with us. When sedated you will be conscious, but unaware of what is going on around you. Can I book in for an initial chat ? Of course you can.
