Why is it so hard to find an NHS dentist in Salisbury?

Many NHS dental practices are fully booked and not able to take on new patients. This is due to high demand, limited funding and fewer NHS dentists in the area.

If you’ve tried to register with an NHS dentist in Salisbury without luck, your options are limited to:

  • Waiting for NHS availability as some practices occasionally open spots, but you may be waiting months or even years for an appointment.
  • Seeking emergency NHS care for pain relief, but this often doesn’t cover full restorative or even general dental care.

But there is another option.
