Oral health care

We support dental and oral health. We support self-care and prevent and treat oral health conditions.

Current issues at the oral health care:

  • Karkkila: The emergency dental care services in Karkkila will be arranged at the Nummela dental clinic from 13 March to 6 April. The reason is a sudden lack of personnel. We regret the situation. Jari Linden, Chief Dentist, Karkkila, Lohja, Siuntio, Vihti
  • Espoo, Kirkkonummi, Vihti, Karkkila: The telephone service of the oral health care is severely overloaded. In urgent cases, you can contact the oral health care during the same day, but in non-urgent cases, you may be forced to wait for a call-back for several days. Please note that all calls are recorded in our system and there is no need to call several times.Our personnel are hard at work to reduce the waiting times and we ask for patience. If you want to provide us feedback, you can do that in the Western Uusimaa Wellbeing Services County’s feedback service. Updated 1 March 2023.

Notice: The dental care invoices from Kirkkonummi and Raseborg have not yet been sent for 2023. There are also delays in the dental care invoices from Espoo.
