Why it's hard to get an NHS dentist
NHS practices agree a set amount of NHS work each year. When it's used up, many stop taking new NHS patients until the next contract year, so places open and close all the time.
- Call and ask for an NHS appointment, not just "an appointment".
- Widen the search. You don't register with a dentist the way you do with a GP, so any NHS practice in England can see you.
- Ask your local NHS. Your integrated care board buys NHS dentistry locally and can tell you who has space.
In pain now?
Call NHS 111 or use 111 online. They can book urgent NHS dental care, which costs £27.90 in England.
Go to A&E or call 999 if swelling is spreading to your eye or neck, you're struggling to breathe or swallow, bleeding won't stop, or you've had a serious injury to your face or mouth.
