Listing a practice does not mean we recommend it, and absence from the list does not mean a practice is unsuitable. Ratings shown are Google users' opinions.
NHS availability
Whether a practice takes NHS patients changes often. Check NHS.uk and confirm with the practice.
Registration
Verify a dentist on the GDC register and a practice's inspection history at CQC. A website mentioning registration is not verification.

What should I do in a dental emergency?
For urgent dental problems call NHS 111, which can direct you to an urgent dental service. Call 999 for severe facial swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, or bleeding you cannot stop.
Does being listed mean a practice is recommended?
No. Listing does not mean we recommend a practice, and absence from the list does not mean a practice is unsuitable. Ratings shown are Google users' opinions.
Can I rely on the NHS and registration details shown?
No. NHS availability changes often, and a website that mentions the GDC or CQC is not proof of registration or an inspection result.
