How can I find an NHS dentist?

To get registered with an NHS dentist at a dental surgery convenient to you, you can contact the Access Dental Helpline. One of the advisors will be able to give instant advice over the phone. The helpline provides information on all dental enquiries for patients residing in or visiting the Devon area. You will need to check that the dentist you choose registers NHS patients. To find out more contact the Access Dental helpline:
Telephone: 03330 063 300
Email: accessdentalhelpline@nhs.net
The helpline is available on weekdays between 8am and 6pm. During evenings and weekends, there is an answer phone message directing patients to out-of-hours dental cover, should you require emergency treatment.
To find your nearest NHS dental practice, please visit the NHS website.
For emergency dental care, please call 03330 063 300 or 111.
Please note, the Royal Devon University Healthcare Foundation Trust does not run an emergency dental service, nor provides urgent dental appointments at its Dental Access Centres.
