How to access Oral Health Services

There is a community of support right across NWT, ready to help families with all their oral health care needs, from appointments to free toothbrushes (where available).

If you want more information or to book an appointment to have your teeth or your child’s teeth checked, reach out to a resource near you. Or email us and we’ll help however we can.

Private Dental Clinics

Government Dental Services

In the Northwest Territories, for communities that do not have private dental clinics, your local health centre can advise when the next dental visit is, or refer you for dental travel, if needed.

If you have questions about dental services, or if you have any concerns about your oral health, contact your local health centre or Oral Health Professional. For more information visit:
