Due to a continuing rise in coronavirus cases, England is set to enter a second lockdown.
From Thursday (November 5), the strictest restrictions will be back in force for at least four weeks.
People across the country will be banned from mixing with anyone outside their household or support bubble, told to 'stay home as much as possible, and to work from home only if they can.
Businesses will also be forced into closure, however, there are some differences to the previous lockdown in March.
A number of public services will also stay open and you will be able to leave home to visit them.
This includes the NHS and medical services like GPs.
The government says they are supporting the NHS to safely carry out urgent and non-urgent services and it is vital anyone who thinks they need any kind of medical care comes forward and seeks help.
This means dentists will remain open and accept patients for normal appointments.
The British Association of Private Dentistry also tweeted: "Despite an impending lockdown private practices will remain OPEN.
"It's safe and essential to attend the dentist.
"We remain open to all, for both routine and emergency treatments. #DentalCare".
