Register with a dentist
In most instances it is best for you to keep your family dentist and make appointments there during vacations, as there are no dental facilities at university.
However, you can register with the University of Sussex dentist, in the Health Centre on the Sussex campus at Falmer, +44 (0)1273 605555.
If you want to register with a local dentist, you can find one here: www.nhs.uk/servicedirectories/Pages/ServiceSearch.aspx?ServiceType=Dentist
