During an assessment under our new approach
We carried out this announced on-site inspection on 16 May 2025.
We found the practice had met regulations.
Infection control procedures in place were effective.
Patients’ care and treatment was provided in line with current guidance.
Patients were treated with dignity and respect and at the time of our inspection, could access care, support and treatment when required.
Recruitment procedures required improvements to reflect current legislation.
The practice is in Southampton and provides private dental care and treatment for adults and children.
Access to the practice was via a short flight of stairs Patients that required step-free access were directed to an alternative dental practice. Car parking spaces were available at the practice.
The practice had 2 treatment rooms. At the time of our inspection, there was a total of 5 staff, of which there were the principal dentist, 3 dental nurses, and 1 dental hygienist. We gathered feedback from staff. The practice was closed to patients on the day of inspection, so we spoke to the principal dentist.
