Emergency Dental Service
The Emergency Dental Service (EDS) provides patients access to urgent dental treatment at a variety of clinics across North Wales.
At least one EDS clinic operates on each of the following, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, and Saturday & Sunday mornings.
EDS clinics are located at Bethesda, Llanfair PG, Llandudno Junction, Rhyl, Deeside and Wrexham.
The EDS clinic in Wrexham operates out of the Grove Road Dental Centre and has sessions on Thursday evening (12 places), and Sunday morning (24 places).
Thursday clinics are appointment only, via the NHS Direct triage service. No appointment is required for the Sunday morning session although patients are advised to be there by 9.00am as the slots fill quickly.
