We’re 5! Happy Birthday to us!
Big thank you to everyone for their support, feedback, patronage and amazingness! We look forward to many more years ahead!
We will be closing early on Thursday 10th September at 1 pm, to celebrate. Apologies! If you need to book an appointment please call the clinic on (02) 9387 2851 on Friday 11th September from 8 am or book online here.
We are open for all your dental care needs!
From Saturday 9th May, the dental restrictions have lowered to Level 1. Boutique Dental Bondi has returned to offering our full range of dental services, including teeth cleanings, teeth whitening, dental crowns and implants, Invisalign, fillings and more.
Patient pre-screening, social distancing as well as our increased infection prevention procedures will continue. Unfortunately our waiting room will no longer offer magazines, charging stations or children’s toys and we will no longer offer blankets or pillows to patients in surgery, since these items are too difficult to adequately clean and disinfect. Clear plastic screens (sneeze guards) have been installed at the front desk to minimize exposure to airborne pathogens. Medical-grade high efficiency particulate arrestance (HEPA) air purifiers have been installed in the office to help improve the air quality in the area for all patients, family members, and staff. Our dentists and staff will be wearing all of the recommended personal protective equipment (PPE).
Thank you to all of our patients for their continued patience and understanding during this time! If you had to delay your appointment due to the restrictions, please call the clinic on (02) 9387 2851 to reschedule or follow the link to book online. We look forward to welcoming you back to Boutique Dental Bondi.
Following an announcement from the Prime Minister and the Dental Board of Australia, we are happy to announce Boutique Dental Bondi is moving to Level 2 Dental Restrictions from Monday 27 April.
As the national stockpile of personal protective equipment has been boosted and the community transmission rate of COVID-19 remains low. Boutique Dental Bondi is able to resume a wider range of dental services, such as dental consultations, fillings, dental crowns and Invisalign treatment. We are also able to provide dental cleans, however under the restrictions we are still unable to use ultrasonic cleaners, air polishers or any other aerosol generating equipment.
Social distancing, patient screening and increased infection prevention procedures remain at our Bondi Junction, Sydney clinic. To scheduled an appointment please call the clinic on (02) 9387 2851 or book online.
We look forward to caring for you and the community during this time.
Stay safe,
The Boutique Dental Bondi Team
Boutique Dental Bondi is still open to support your dental care, however, the Australian Health Protection Principal Committee (AHPPC, the key decision-making committee for public health emergencies comprised of all state and territory Chief Health Officers and chaired by the Chief Medical Officer) and Australian Dental Association (ADA) have recommended that dentists cease provision of routine dental treatment and only perform urgent and emergency dental treatment. This purpose of this restriction to:
prevent the further spread of COVID-19
conserve desperately needed personal protective equipment supplies (e.g. surgical masks, respirators and gowns) which will be required to protect frontline health care workers in hospitals caring for COVID-19 patients.
In line with this advice, Boutique Dental Bondi will temporarily postpone all routine dental care (such as check-up and cleans, dental crowns, dental implant placements, cosmetic procedures, etc). Patients who fit this category with existing appointments will be contacted to have their appointments rescheduled.
Concurrently, as dentists, we recognise our duty to provide care for urgent and emergency dental conditions. This is important not only to ensure patients receive the urgent care they require but also to alleviate the burden on medical primary care and emergency services. In line with this, Boutique Dental Bondi will continue to treat patients who are determined to have genuine urgent and emergency dental conditions. All treatment will be provided with strict adherence to ADA Guidelines in terms of additional infection control and personal protective equipment precautions.
Under these restrictions, Boutique Dental Bondi will temporarily only be seeing patients with:
Acute dental pain (toothaches or very sore gums)
Dental Trauma (trips, falls and accidents causing soft tissue and dental injuries)
Facial and gum swellings (infections and abscesses)
Re-cementing loose crowns or veneers
Broken tooth or fillings, if cutting lip, tongue or cheeks
Urgent fillings or dental treatment, required to prevent infections or pain
Loose retainer wires hurting gums, tongues or cheeks
Gum and soft tissue lesions (ulcers) that haven't healed for more than 2 weeks
Referred by GP/doctor for dental treatment
Patients over the age of 60 years old and those with chronic diseases (particularly cardiovascular or respiratory disease), and those who are immunocompromised (e.g. currently under cancer treatments or insulin dependent diabetics) should delay treatment wherever possible because social distancing is especially important for these groups.
Please be reassured that we are here to support our existing and any new patients during this difficult time. Our practice shall remain open on temporarily reduced hours and our dentists shall remain available to assist with your enquiries. The situation is ever changing, and we shall provide updates to this advice as required. Please take care of yourselves, your families and your community.
Kind Regards,
The Boutique Dental Team
At Boutique Dental Bondi we are taking proactive measures to minimise the potential spread of the COVID-19 virus. While we are not aware of any incidences where our patients have tested positive to - or come into contact with - coronavirus, we feel it is important to add additional measures to ensure the health and wellbeing of our patients and staff:
We will be temporarily limiting our dental services to restricted services, in accordance with the Australian Health Protection Principal Committee.
We encourage everyone to utilise the additional hand sanitiser available upon entry to our Bondi Junction clinic.
We have reduced the seating in our waiting room to ensure social distancing between seats. We recommend that patients attend their appointment alone or only bring minimal additional accompanying persons, this excludes patient's carers, parents and guardians.
Prior to your treatment you will be required to rinse for 60 seconds with a 0.2% povidine iodine solution.
As you know, there is a small window of time between each appointment. Within this time-frame, each surgery is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. Please be patient by allowing our clinical team as much time as they need to adhere to the heightened hygiene procedures we have implemented. Further to that we have increased the environmental cleaning of our non clinical areas, such as reception and waiting areas. We only use disinfectants and decontaminates with proven efficacy against the coronavirus, more information about these products can be found here, here and here.
If you have returned from overseas in the past 30 days or have any flu like symptoms (fever above 37.5 C, sore or scratchy throat, runny nose, coughing) or have been in contact with a confirmed or suspected case of COVID-19, please respect all of our staff and other patients and let us know (via email or phone) that you are unable to attend your appointment. You will not be charged for a late cancellation in this incidence. However if you do not let us know, there will be a no-show fee applied.
We will continue to monitor information we receive and provide full transparency that is relevant to coronavirus. We look forward to continuing to care for you and your family during this time.
Kind Regards,
The Boutique Dental Bondi Team
