NHS Children's Dentist in Stamford | St Mary's Dental

We only hold a small NHS contract for children. We are not accepting new adult NHS patients at this practice or at any of our other Lincolnshire locations. Parents enquiring about a child's NHS place should call 01780 755005 so we can check current availability.

No. NHS emergency appointments are not available at St Mary's Dental. All dental emergencies — for children and adults — are seen privately, which gives same-day pain relief and a proper course of treatment. Private emergency consultations start from £75 and any further costs are explained clearly before proceeding.

Yes, children already registered under our NHS contract continue to receive their NHS care as normal until they turn 18 or the contract changes. We always write to parents in advance if anything affects their child's registration.

If we do not have space on the children's NHS contract when you call, we will say so honestly. Parents are welcome to join the private list instead — private children's dental care is offered at family-friendly rates, and we can discuss the costs before any appointment is booked.

For adult NHS dental care please contact NHS 111 or search nhs.uk/service-search/find-a-dentist to identify practices in the wider Lincolnshire, Rutland or Peterborough area that are currently accepting adult NHS patients. We know availability is tight and apologise that we cannot register adult NHS patients ourselves.
