Dental Treatment
Please see your dentist, not your GP. GPs are not able or insured to treat any form of dental problem. If you are registered with a dentist, you should first contact your dentist who is obliged to arrange emergency care.
If you are not registered with a dentist, you should telephone 0131 537 8444 for information on dental practices who are registering NHS patients in Lothian. For emergency dental care if you are not registered with a dentist, you can use the Walk-In facility at Chalmers Dental Centre, 3 Chalmers Street, Edinburgh EH3 9EW, Monday-Friday 9.00am – 4.45 pm Monday to Thursday, and 9.00 am – 4.15 pm Friday. For out of hours emergency dental care, you should phone NHS 24 on 08454 24 24 24
