During an assessment under our new approach
We carried out this announced on-site inspection on 27 August 2025.
We found the practice had met regulations.
The practice had effective systems to identify and manage risks, including infection prevention and control.
Staff had the skills, knowledge and experience to carry out their roles.
Recruitment procedures reflected current legislation and there was effective leadership and a culture of continuous improvement.
Staff provided care and treatment in line with current guidance. They treated patients with dignity and respect and ensured access to care, support and treatment when required.
The practice is in Tamworth, Staffordshire and provides NHS and private orthodontic care and treatment for adults and children.
There was no step-free access to the practice. Patients were referred to their sister practice in Birmingham if they required wheelchair access. Car parking spaces were 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 7 staff, of which there were 2 orthodontists, 2 dental nurses, 1 orthodontic therapist, 1 receptionist and a practice manager. We gathered feedback from staff and spoke to a range of staff during our inspection.
