Emergency Treatment
Paediatric casuals / emergencies are seen on Monday to Friday at 8:30am, and additionally at 1:30pm on Fridays only. Patients are seen according to clinical priority.
A casual / emergency refers to a patient who a General Dental Practitioner has been unable to treat and has therefore sent to the Dental Hospital with a referral letter asking that they be seen on that day or the day after.
