The Dental Register

Every member of our clinical staff is registered with the General Dental Council therefore adhering to their stringent terms and ethics of “practising dentistry”. Dentists, dental therapists, hygienists and nurses at Mouth Matters continually develop and update their skills and knowledge by attending professional lectures, meetings and peer reviews on a yearly basis. This is a requirement to be able to stay listed on the Dental Register.

The Care Quality Commission (CQC)

The practice is registered with the CQC and therefore underlies its exacting rules and regulations. Comprehensive inspections by the CQC will determine if the services at our clinic are safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led. The last inspection confirmed that Mouth Matters was found to be in full compliance with all relevant regulations.
