FAQ

Questions? Answers.

How do you know when a dentist is accepting patients?

We combine the official NHS Service Search API (practice details) with direct checks of the NHS.uk find-a-dentist website (accepting status), plus community reports from people who call practices. Every NHS practice in England is checked every week — and every weeknight in areas we monitor for members.

Is this an official NHS service?

No. DentistAlert is an independent service that uses publicly available NHS data. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the NHS.

What happens when I get an alert?

You'll receive an email with the practice name, address, phone number, and what they're accepting (adults, children, urgent care). You then contact the practice directly to register.

How is this different from checking the NHS website?

The NHS website shows you a snapshot — you have to keep checking it yourself. We do the checking for you and email you when something changes near you: paid alerts land in your inbox by ~8:30am the morning we spot a change, free users get a weekly digest. Most practices fill up fast, so hearing early is everything.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. All paid plans are monthly with no commitment. Cancel from your dashboard and you'll keep access until the end of your billing period.

What areas do you cover?

All of England. We monitor every NHS dental practice — currently over 6,400 practices. Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland use different systems and are not yet supported.

Stop refreshing the NHS website.
Let us watch for you.

Thousands of people across England are struggling to find an NHS dentist. Get ahead of the queue with alerts in your inbox by ~8:30am — no refreshing the NHS site yourself.
