We carried out this announced on-site inspection on 29 July 2026.

We found the practice had met regulations.

Staff had the skills, knowledge and experience to carry out their roles.

Recruitment procedures reflected current legislation and there was effective leadership.

They treated patients with dignity and respect and ensured access to care, support, and treatment when required. Staff provided care and treatment broadly in line with current guidance.

The practice had some systems to identify and manage risks.

The practice is in Lee on The Solent, Hampshire, and provides private dental care and treatment for adults and NHS care and treatment for children.

Step-free access to the practice was enabled by a removeable ramp and car parking spaces available, including dedicated parking for disabled people, near the practice.

The practice had 2 treatment rooms. At the time of our inspection, there was a total of 6 staff, of which there were the principal dentist, 3 dental nurses, and 2 dental hygienists.

During a routine inspection

Lee-on-the-Solent Dental Practice provided a service for some NHS patients, for patients under a dental insurance plan and for private patients. We saw that there was a list of treatment charges in a folder in the waiting area.

We spoke with four people who were sat in the waiting area of the practice. This area was comfortable, warm and clean and had a range of information leaflets available. All the people told us they were satisfied with the service they received. One person said; "I have been coming here for 22 years so what does that tell you?'

People told us that they were able to make informed decisions. They said they had enough information to make a decision about their treatment options.

We were told that the provider fully explained the options about the treatment they were being offered. People said they were able to ask any questions and that staff explained things to them clearly.

The service had effective quality systems in place that ensured the service was kept clean. There was sufficient staff that had sufficient qualifications, skills and experience working at the practice.
