8 | ghp December 2016 Health & Social Care Dedicated Dentistry he Scott Arms Dental Practice has provided an extensive emergency dental service for over 26 years, treating over 150,000 patients during its time. Between 1992 and 1997, the practice also provided the official emergency dental service for the health authority, as well as covering emergency service for the Birmingham Dental Hospital over bank holidays and weekends. As a part of this pledge to look after its clients, Scott Arms offers an emergency dental service across all 365 days in the year, and consciously strives to look after all of its patients, going to great lengths in order to eliminate their dental pain and toothache where possible. It is possible for Scott Arms to do this because the practice’s dental team includes a great many prize-winning dentists, all of whom possess highly- developed skills in a range of specialist interest areas, which all achieve the aggregate of a well-rounded practice with holistic services to offer at the greatest quality. They are friendly, warm, caring and trained to deal with anxious and nervous patients, and are led by the esteemed Dr. Philip Tangri, who qualified from Birmingham University in 1989 and has been the practice owner since taking over in 1994. Dr. Tangri has been fundamental in helping Scott Arms to grow into one of the largest and most highly reputable practices in the West Midlands, being clinically dedicated in treating many thousands of patients requiring dental implant treatment, with over 26 years of experience in his field; he is one of the top placers of Straumann Implants in England. “We also have a dedicated management team,” Dr. Tangri says. “Our nurses are all either registered with the General Dental Council or are enrolled on a recognised programme that will lead to GDC registration. Our receptionists are all either dental nurses or experienced members of the team. The team regularly attend courses to update their knowledge and also receive regular training on customer service. A number of our nurses and receptionists are trained treatment co-ordinators. “We aim to maintain our high standards of care and treatment, listening and acting on patient feedback. We will strive to continue to meet the regulations of our industry’s governing bodies including CQC and General Dental Council standards.” As the practice undergoes expansion into a property next door, Dr. Tangri anticipates an improved ability to provide even better patient facilities such as more clinical areas, treatment co-ordinator rooms, additional car parking and waiting areas.
