St James Dental Clinic

St James Dental Clinic, located on Extons Road in King’s Lynn, Norfolk, is dedicated to providing comprehensive dental care for everyone. As part of Community Dental Services (CDS), the clinic focuses on improving oral health across the community, particularly for those who may face barriers to accessing traditional dental services.

The clinic is renowned for its Oral Health Improvement Program, which includes a preventative toothbrushing initiative aimed at young children in schools and early years settings. This programme addresses oral health inequalities and ensures that vulnerable groups, including the elderly and those in care settings, receive essential oral health advice and support.

In addition to general dental services, St James Dental Clinic offers mobile dental clinics that reach individuals who may struggle to access conventional care, such as those experiencing homelessness or substance misuse. This commitment to inclusivity ensures that everyone in the community can benefit from quality dental care.

The clinic also provides valuable resources, including evidence-based leaflets on preventative oral health for both children and adults. Their Oral Health Information Hub features engaging activities, videos, and educational materials designed to promote good oral hygiene practices.

St James Dental Clinic is a vital part of the local healthcare landscape, working closely with NHS England and Local Authorities to ensure that dental care is accessible to all. Referrals to the clinic are typically made through healthcare professionals, ensuring that patients receive the appropriate care tailored to their needs.
