Most of the health service clinics held here are by appointment only. Patients are referred to these services from a variety of sources including doctors and other health professionals.
There will no longer be a dental service available from the Greater Manchester School for DCPs at Eccles Gateway Dental Department.
Appointments are no longer available as the students are finalising treatment for patients that need care before the school closes.
As of 31 March 2021 the school will close. Therefore you will need to find another dental service suitable for your needs.
There are a number of ways you may be able to find a dentist:

The community dental service provides specialised dental services to people living in Salford with complex needs who are unable to use general dental services. Patients may be referred to the service from a variety of sources including other dentists, doctors, other health and social care professionals and support workers.
The contact telephone number for Eccles Gateway Community Dental Service is 0161 206 1699.
Student placements within the service provide extensive opportunities of dental experience for dental students and dental nurses who can carry out routine dental work such as examinations, fillings and extractions but do not provide complex treatments.
