Oral and dental care

Information about the service

When you contact the dental clinic, an oral health care professional assesses your need for care and level of urgency. Based on this assessment, you will receive advice or an appointment for a dental nurse, oral hygienist or dentist.

Dental clinics are open on weekdays.

You will receive an SMS reminder (in Finnish) for your reserved appointment two days in advance.

Cancelling a reserved appointment

If you cannot attend your appointment, cancel it as soon as possible no later than the day before the appointment. Appointments can be cancelled by phone or via the SMS service. A fee is charged for unused appointments that have not been cancelled.
