Dental health care
A time for non-urgent dental care is given according to the assessment of the need for individual treatment.
Emergency dental care refers to providing an oral examination and care when treatment can be life threatening if delayed, or an absence of treatment would pose significant health risks. You must personally book a time for continuing treatment as needed.
A healthy mouth is an important part of overall health. Oral problems also affect many common diseases. For the most part, oral diseases are self-preventable.
Call us when you want to make an appointment with a dentist, dental nurse or oral hygienist or for information about our services.
Open Monday–Thursday from 07:30–16:00 Fridays 07:30–15.00 (Variations between Municipalities may occur).
