During a routine inspection

We spoke with two patients of Dr Priti Thanasi and asked them for their views about the care and treatment they received. People told us they were happy with the service and felt they were well informed about the health of their teeth and gums. They told us they were given advice on good oral care and were consulted where treatment was required. People's comments included: "Excellent, very friendly and good at putting you at ease." "On marvellous, I've had so much work done, she's been absolutely incredible." One person told us when they had required an emergency appointment that had been the seen the same day.

We found by speaking with and observing staff that there were effective systems in place to reduce the risk and spread of infection. We reviewed the infection prevention and decontamination policies and found them to be up to date and comprehensive with responsibilities clearly defined.

We found by speaking with staff and reviewing records that the dentist and dental nurse regularly accessed training. The dentist had an effective quality assurance system which included seeking the views of people who used his service.
