Extra appointments for urgent dental care

More help for people needing urgent dental support is being made available in Sussex.

The NHS in Sussex is expanding access to urgent dental care appointments following the success of a pilot programme last year. More appointments are being made available across Sussex, including in Eastbourne, Hastings, Lewes, Rother, and Wealden.

The initiative will provide same-day urgent care appointments and also offers courses of treatment, reducing the need for recurring visits.

People in need of urgent dental care who don’t have a regular dentist can access the service by calling the Sussex Dental Helpline on 0300 123 1663 or emailing kcht.dentalhelpdesk@nhs.net.
