Dental House Group Awarded Full Accreditation with the NSQHS
We are yet again facing another serious global threat. Just a few weeks later, the world has come to know a new virus that is continuously affecting thousands of victims today and is endangering millions more. This new virus is tentatively named “2019-nCov” or Novel Coronavirus, a virus closely related to SARS and MERS. The World Health Organization and other health experts are encouraging everyone to be vigilant with their surroundings and health.
With the outbreak of this virus, Dental House Group has your welfare in our topmost priority. Our patients can have the peace of mind knowing that both Sunbury Dental House and Bacchus Marsh Dental House are fully accredited dental clinics.
