When referring a patient please include any relevant x-rays taken within the last 12 months. Please note that our x-ray departments are very busy and a patient’s visit can often be quicker if they do not need to be x-rayed.

Jaw necrosis clinic
The department of oral surgery draws from multiple disciplines for the management of patients with established jaw necrosis as well as those at risk of developing jaw necrosis when dental extractions are required.
The team is made up from a range of different healthcare professionals including dental (oral surgery, sedation and special care, restorative), surgery (oral and maxillofacial, ear nose throat, plastics), oncology (head and neck, breast, prostate, multiple myeloma), and auxiliaries (dietetics, speech and language, physiotherapy).
Those patients that fit these criteria can be referred to the clinic via this referral form (Word 140Kb). Referrers should be aware that this clinic cannot provide routine dental care or treatment and referral requesting will not be accepted.

Dental and maxillofacial radiology
The department has dental x-ray equipment, ultrasound, lithotripsy, sialendoscopy, fluoroscopy and cone beam computed tomography.
Practitioners can refer images securely for radiology reports to gst-tr.DentalRadiology@nhs.net and a written report will be issued.
