The walk-in dental centre, which is located in East Cowes Medical Centre on Church Path, is now open and appointments are available for new patients. Patients are invited to visit ‘www.hampshireandwightdental.co.uk’ to fill in an online form.

Patients who require urgent dental treatment while they are waiting to register with an NHS practice are urged to call 111.
