Dental emergencies have not gone away during the Covid 19 pandemic. Dentists are trying to maintain a service to the best of their abilities with several new challenges such as increased PPE. Unfortunately, dental emergency clinics which the HSE had announced have not yet materialised.

In this episode, we speak to Dr. Richard Graham about the situation in Northern Ireland. Richard explains how the urgent dental care clinics are operating and shares his experience of working in these clinics under challenging conditions.

Thank you to Richard for sharing his experience with us on a Saturday afternoon at the end of an extremely busy week.
