How we decide what goes on this page

A practice appears here only when its own page on this site already states that it provides NHS treatment. In England that comes from the NHS Business Services Authority's record of general dental contract activity, which we take every month. In Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland it comes from that nation's own regulator. Where we could not confirm either way, the practice is left off rather than guessed at, so this list is a floor and not a complete census.

How NHS dentistry in St. Helens has changed

In April 2016 there were 14 addresses in St. Helens where an NHS dental contract delivered treatment. In the most recent month published there were 15. That count uses a different unit from the list above, so the two numbers are not the same measure and should not be compared with each other.
