nhs dentists

[loltolhurst]

ok dont have a dentist at the mo due to lack of funds - how does nhs dentist work? seem to remember seeing on tv they are impossible to get? how does it work do you ring every dentist nearby and see if they accept nhs patients or does nobody do it?


thanks

Contact your local PCT.

They contract all the NHS dentists and will know which ones can accept new patients.

You can also try http://www.nhs.uk/servicedirectories/Pages/service... but it is not updated regularly enough IMO.
