Dentists in Leeds

Leeds has a large mix of NHS, private and mixed dental practices across the city — from family dentists to cosmetic and orthodontic clinics. NHS dental appointments can be in high demand, so it's worth checking a practice's NHS status directly. Every Leeds dental practice is registered with the Care Quality Commission and staffed by GDC-registered professionals.

NHS and private dentistry

NHS dental treatment is charged in fixed national bands, while private fees are set by each practice and vary across Leeds. Practices take new NHS patients only at certain times, so contacting them directly is the best way to confirm availability. Cosmetic treatments such as whitening and veneers are generally private.

Finding the right practice

Look at each listing's CQC status, confirm whether the practice is accepting NHS patients if that's what you need, and check the treatments offered. For urgent dental problems out of hours, NHS 111 can help you find emergency dental care. The listings below cover dental practices across Leeds.

Yes. 3 listed clinics offer NHS care. Check each clinic's listing for how to access its NHS services.
Availability of NHS dental appointments varies by area and changes often. Check each practice's listing for its NHS/private status, then contact the practice directly to ask whether it is currently accepting new NHS patients. The NHS website's 'Find a dentist' service and NHS 111 can also help, especially for urgent needs.
NHS dental treatment in England is charged in fixed bands set nationally — a lower band for examinations and simple treatments, and higher bands for more complex work such as fillings, crowns or dentures. Charges are reviewed annually. Some people (for example children, and those on certain benefits) are exempt. Cosmetic-only treatments are generally not available on the NHS.
For severe pain, swelling, bleeding or trauma, contact your dentist as soon as possible — many keep emergency slots. Out of hours, call NHS 111, which can direct you to urgent dental care. If there is difficulty breathing or swallowing, or significant facial swelling, treat it as a medical emergency and call 999.
