Whether a practice is taking new NHS patients changes week to week and is not in the open data we use. Each practice sets it on the NHS website, so every practice here links there.

How many people in Cambridge see an NHS dentist

How to get an NHS dentist

  • Ask any NHS practice. You do not register with a dentist the way you do with a GP: contact a practice and ask for an NHS appointment. Some keep a waiting list.
  • Need help urgently? Any NHS dentist can offer you urgent treatment, even if they are not taking new patients. Phone a practice, or call NHS 111.
  • Cannot find one? Contact your local integrated care board (ICB): it runs dental services in Cambridge.
  • What it costs. Most adults pay one of three NHS charges; children and some adults pay nothing. See NHS dental charges.
