All Inspections

During an assessment under our new approach

We carried out this announced on-site inspection on 2 June 2026.

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 Sale, Cheshire and provides private dental care and treatment for adults and children.

There was step-free access to the practice and car parking spaces available, including 1 dedicated parking for disabled people, at the front of the practice.

The practice had 3 treatment rooms. The total number of staff was 15. We gathered feedback from staff and spoke to a range of staff during our inspection, including 1 dentist, 2 dental nurses, 1 receptionist, the practice owner, 1 compliance manager and the practice manager.

During a routine inspection

People who have received treatment at The Manor Dental Care Centre told us: 'The dentist coached me through everything, I am over the moon.'

'It really helps that I get email reminders about my appointments.'

'From reception onwards they treat you very well.'

We sampled three electronic records which included scanned copies of signed consent. The consent letter detailed the treatment, treatment plans, estimated length of treatment and cost.

The practice was modern and contemporary, with a light and spacious waiting area which had a range of up to date magazines for patients to read whilst waiting.

The Manor Dental Practice also offers treatment to nervous patients and people with dental phobia, by offering a sedation clinic. The manager told us that although they do not have many patients whom ultimately choose sedation, they take this very seriously and have a specialist anaesthetist to treat these patients.

We saw the safeguarding policy, which included a simple flow chart of action and details of who to contact within the local authority should they have any concerns.

A dental nurse discussed the practice infection control daily procedures and showed us records of the checks they carried out.

The manager showed us the results of a patient satisfaction survey carried out in 2012. We noted majority of areas were rated as good to very good. 94% of those surveyed, said the friendliness of the dentist and care and attention as very good.
