CQC inspected and rated outstanding Our team is made up of specialists in special care dentistry providing specialist dentistry for patients unable to visit general dentist practice due to their special needs, learning disabilities, significant health problems or other issues that prevent them from accessing a regular service.

Our clinics are countywide although we do also have mobile services that visit special needs students in schools.

We do not provide specialist or advanced restorative care. Exemptions from NHS dental treatment costs apply for children and young people under age 19 and people paid certain benefits. For more information please visit NHS health costs information. 

We offer:

  • Specialist services – our countywide clinics specialise in treating service users requiring behaviour management when receiving dental care. Our aim is to help patients access dental care with minimal specialist intervention, so that they can have fillings, extractions and gum treatments. The care we provide is complementary to general dental and hospital settings, so we don’t offer regular services or advanced restorative care such as crown and bridge work
  • Mobile services – we are able to visit special needs students in schools
  • Oral Health Promotion – our dedicated team of dental care professionals work in partnership with other organisations to ensure our communities receive joined up care for better oral health.

Who is this service for? We provide a comprehensive treatment service for children and adults who would not or could not access care with a general practice dentist across Northamptonshire.

How to access this service: We accept referrals from dentists and GPs.  Patients can self-refer, but only when they have found it difficult to access regular services or have learning disabilities by emailing your name, address and telephone number to Providerdental.northants@nhs.net.
