Dental care
The Dental Health Program provides emergency, general and denture care to eligible Victorians through community dental clinics in community health services, rural hospitals and the Royal Dental Hospital of Melbourne.
This website will provide you with information about the wait times for general and denture care.
If you need emergency care, you will generally be assessed within 24 hours of making contact with a community dental clinic (within business hours). Urgent needs cover bleeding, swelling or trauma.
People with urgent denture needs will be prioritised. Urgent dentures will generally be made within three months.
How do wait lists work?
Each community dental clinic has lists for general care and denture care.
People are treated in the order in which they are placed on either the general care list or the denture care list at each clinic.
For further information regarding the Dental Health Program please visit the Dentistry in Victoria website.
