See all 16 servicesHow we decide what goes on this page
A practice appears here when its own profile on the NHS website says it is accepting new NHS patients for routine dental care. The practice sets that answer itself and dates it. We read every England practice's NHS profile each week and match it to the practice by its NHS code, or by its postcode and name. A practice that manages its own page with us and says it is private is left off. We also check NHS treatment records, which show whether a practice treated NHS patients.
