Hello

Does anybody know of a Dentist in Roquetas that will honour the blue EHIC card for emergency treatment for a child. I possess an NIE number but I am not Spanish resident.

Thank you

I stand to correction but as far as I am aware, EHIC is for emergency medical treatment; Dental treatment is not covered. Dental treatment not even covered under Spanish Health system

Dental treatment in Spain (as in the U.K.) is not free. But the dentists here are generally good and economical. To find a local one ask at your local pharmacy.

Couple of years ago we had to find a dentist in August. Most of them seem to go on holiday in that month! Found one by the roundabout near the castle and port on the opposite side of the road. I think called Santa Ana clinic? Very helpful. Emergency treatment for toothache the cost of which we recovered through Denplan.
