Q.
I was recently diagnosed with epliepsy, and am concerned that I may have an episode during treatment. Have you had any experience with epileptic patients and would you be able to offer me any advice?
A.

Advise your dentist about your seizers. If your seizers are in an active state I would avoid dental treatment. As long as you take your medication and your seizers are under control you should not be concerned.

Q.
I would like to know whether or not dentists have the same confidential kind of law as do doctors? I mean being unable to tell others about the patient’s treatment and such.
A.
Hi many thanks for your enquiry, yes dentists are governed by patient confidentialty. So a treatment that takes place between you and your dentist is strictly private information. Hope this is helpful.

Q.
This may sound slightly stupid but is there any relation between oral herpes and genital herpes?
A.
Interesting question and can be answered simply by saying yes.  The virus is transmitted through contact…..I will leave it  at that!
