Paediatric and Special Community Dental Service

The Paediatric and Special Community Dental Service, located at 13 Langthorne Road in Leytonstone, London, is part of the Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust. This practice is dedicated to providing a wide range of dental services tailored to meet the needs of diverse patient groups, particularly those who may face challenges accessing traditional dental care.

Specialising in community dental services, the practice offers essential dental care for patients who require specialist intervention or home visits. Their services encompass fillings, denture provision, extractions, and teeth cleaning, ensuring that all patients receive the care they need in a supportive environment.

The practice also focuses on special care dentistry, catering to individuals with social, psychological, or physical disabilities. This includes treating patients with complex medical histories and those who may struggle to access mainstream dental services. For patients unable to visit the surgery due to physical or mental disabilities, the domiciliary dental service provides treatment in the comfort of their own homes.

In addition to clinical services, the practice promotes oral health through education and training initiatives aimed at various age groups and abilities across Kent and London. Referrals can be made by GPs, dentists, or other healthcare professionals, and self-referrals are accepted under specific guidelines. For urgent dental care, the DentaLine service is available for patients experiencing severe pain or other dental emergencies. The Paediatric and Special Community Dental Service is committed to ensuring that everyone has access to high-quality dental care.
