Please note that should you have a number of issues to discuss with the dentist you may need to book more than 1 consultation.
The cost for an emergency dentist video consultation is £85. This includes the cost of issuing a prescription should this be required (please note that you will still need to pay the pharmacy for the medication on collection).
The video dentist works on a mobile phone, tablet, laptop or desktop. There is no need to download any additional apps or software.
Your emergency dentist will need to be able to see you clearly so please ensure that you have a good internet connection and are sitting in a well-lit area with little background noise. To help the dentist see inside your mouth, it can be helpful to have 2 spoons to retract your cheeks and lips and even the help of a friend to hold your mobile phone.
You will need access to the email address and mobile phone that you provided when you booked your appointment, so that the video dentist can contact you if there are any technical problems with your video link.
If you experience any of the following problems with your online consultation, please email videodentist@the247dentist.com:
