All Inspections

During an assessment under our new approach

We carried out this announced off-site inspection on 26 February 2026.

Where we carry out an off-site assessment, we undertake a detailed review of the practice risk assessments, policies, staff records and other relevant documents. We gather feedback from patients, staff and stakeholders (where relevant). We carry out a remote visual assessment of the premises and have discussions with staff.

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.

Mydentist - Fore Street - Seaton is part of Mydentist, a dental group provider. The practice is in Seaton in Devon and provides NHS and private dental care and treatment for adults and children.

Due to the restrictions of the building and its listed status, the practice was not wheelchair accessible. Patients requiring accessible facilities were directed to a nearby sister practice.

The practice had 5 treatment rooms. At the time of our inspection, there was a total of 18 staff. We gathered feedback from staff and spoke to a range of staff during our inspection, including 2 dentists, 2 dental nurses, and the practice manager. Two of the group’s regulatory officers were also at the inspection, supporting the practice.

During a routine inspection

This was the practice's first inspection since dental services were required to register with the Care Quality Commission.

During our inspection we checked and saw that people using the dental practice had access to examinations in private. We asked people how they were involved in their treatment planning and whether they were informed about what the treatment might involve. We met and spoke with staff and checked records. We found that patient and staff records were completed well.

We looked at the consultation rooms and other areas of the centre and were satisfied that people received safe and effective treatment in a clean environment. We looked at staff recruitment processes.

We looked at records relating to the management of the practice and saw that these were current and up to date. The receptionists checked people's information was correct when they arrived for appointments and dentists' updated people's records on their computer record system after each consultation ensuring patient records were current.

During our inspection we spoke with eight people who attended appointments, all spoke positively about the practice and the treatment they received. One person told us, 'They've been brilliant and accommodating in sorting out my appointment.' Whilst another said, 'It's a nice clean surgery and my dentist is excellent'.
