The Dental Helpline continues to be an invaluable resource for those looking to seek advice, help and reassurance about their oral health and wellbeing. It is a truly charitable service. All enquiries are completely confidential and answered quickly.
Staffed by fully trained oral health experts and dental nurses, the Dental Helpline will provide free and impartial advice on a range of topics, such as dental terms and treatment procedures, oral hygiene, current legislation and regulations, dental charges, complaints procedures, and referrals to other organisations.
The Dental Helpline is based at the Oral Health Foundation’s head office in the UK and has answered more than 400,000 enquiries since its formation.
Opening times are between 09:00 and 17:00, Monday to Friday.
We would like to apologise in advance that there may occasionally be background noise due to staff working from home and thank you for your patience.
