If a parent or guardian is a patient of a practice, often (but not always) the practice will be able to register their child as an NHS patient.
All dental practices listed here have contracted with the Health Board to provide NHS dentistry. However, patients should note that a dentist is not obliged to accept all patients for NHS dental treatment.
