Newstead House Dental Clinic

About

Newstead House Dental Clinic provides specialist-led dental care in paediatric and special care dentistry in Wakefield, with services delivered under the terms of the National Health Service (NHS). Current charges are displayed on posters in waiting areas, and referrals are accepted from general dental practitioners, doctors and other healthcare professionals for patients who are unable to access or receive routine dental care in a general practice. The clinic supports children and people with complex needs, working with patients, families and carers. Information on preparing for appointments includes videos and patient guidance designed to help make dental visits a positive experience, including content for those with learning disabilities. The practice also provides education around children’s oral health, including guidance for children aged 3–6 and 7+, and explains treatments such as Silver Diamine Fluoride. Alongside routine care, Newstead House highlights mouth cancer awareness during Mouth Cancer Action Month in November, encouraging patients to spot unusual lumps, sores or changes in the mouth and to seek prompt advice from a dentist or doctor. Not all clinics are open every day, and the website advises contacting the Wakefield clinic for assistance with queries.
