Accessing dental care Posted or Updated on 25 May 2023

From 8th June dental practices are able to open. Practices will need to prioritise patients with the most urgent need.

If you need help from a dentist:

  • contact your dental practice by phone or email
  • you will be given advice or offered an appointment if appropriate
  • for urgent dental care you can also use the NHS 111 online service

Please do not visit your practice unless you’ve been advised to. This will ensure the practice can continue to provide essential care safely.

What to expect from your dental practice

If you are told to visit your dentist, you may notice some changes have been made to keep you and your dental team safe.

  • Your practice will look different as it observes social distancing and hygiene rules
  • The dental team may also be wearing different protective equipment to what you are used to seeing

Please do not visit your practice unless you’ve been advised to. This will ensure the practice can continue to provide essential care safely.
