Adding Dentists in Cheltenham

A map and list of dental practices in Cheltenham from the NHS directory, with answers on registering, NHS charges and finding a dentist taking new patients.

Cheltenham Open Data has published a new dentists page, listing the dental practices in the NHS’s directory across the GL50 to GL54 postcodes.

There is a map and a sortable table with each practice’s address. The page is upfront about what it can’t tell you: whether a practice is currently taking new NHS patients isn’t published as open data, so it explains how to find out, what to do if you can’t find an NHS dentist, what NHS dental care costs and where to go for urgent dental care.

It sits under Community & Support next to GPs and pharmacies, and is linked from the moving to Cheltenham and student guides.

FAQs

What Does the Dentists Page Show?

  • The dental practices in the NHS directory in Cheltenham’s GL50 to GL54 postcodes, on a map and in a table, with guidance on finding an NHS dentist.

Where Does the Data Come From?

  • The NHS Organisation Data Service, published under the Open Government Licence v3.0, with locations from postcodes.io. It is refreshed monthly.

Can I Tell Which Dentists Are Taking New NHS Patients?

  • Not from this page. Ring the practice and use the NHS’s Find a dentist service.

Why Isn’t a Private Dentist Listed?

  • The directory is the NHS’s, so practices that only offer private care are mostly not in it.
