You’re in Safe Hands With Your Durham Dentist Team!

At Croadsaile Dental Arts we take very seriously our responsibility to provide our patients with dental care in a supportive, safe environment. Because of this commitment, on Feb 19th our entire team completed our biennial course in Basic Life Support for Healthcare Providers provided by the American Heart Association.

This course was designed to provide healthcare professionals with the ability to recognize and respond to life threatening emergencies, provide CPR, use an AED and relive choking in a safe, timely and effective manner.
