Dental Access Centres provide NHS dental treatment to Swindon and Wiltshire residents who do not have a regular dentist and are in need of urgent dental care. 

The service aims to offer patients with urgent dental pain an appointment within 48 hours.

While the service will always try to offer an appointment as close as possible to the patient's home, it may be necessary to travel in order to see a dentist within 48 hours.

We are not able to offer routine treatment and courses of treatment at this time.

Appointments

To make an appointment please call the Dental Helpline:

Tel: 0345 7581926 (Monday - Friday, 8.30am - 5pm)

Charges

Dental Access Centres will charge for dental treatment in line with NHS Dental Charging Bands.
