CQC does not award ratings to dental practices; it inspects them against five regulations and publishes whether each is met. All 60 are registered and inspected by the CQC — each profile shows its inspection date and a link to the full report. 31 of the 60 practices we list here (52%) hold an active NHS contract, according to NHS England's Organisation Data Service — a contract isn't the same as an open list, so always ring and ask.

A private check-up in Tower Hamlets typically costs £35 to £65 — the middle half of 13 check-up prices Tower Hamlets practices publish in their own fee guides, read August 2026. The median is £50, close to the London median of £49. Individual treatments vary by practice and clinician.
Are there NHS dentists accepting new patients in Tower Hamlets?
We can't verify who's currently accepting new NHS patients — lists change too often, and the NHS's own listing has been criticised for going stale (the British Dental Association found 86 of 100 practices shown as "accepting" new adult NHS patients could not actually take them). What we can confirm: 31 of the 60 practices we list in Tower Hamlets (52%) hold an active NHS General Dental Services contract, according to NHS England's Organisation Data Service. See which ones below, and always ring to check before you visit.
Are Tower Hamlets dental practices CQC-rated?
No — CQC does not award ratings (Outstanding/Good) to dental practices; it has no legal power to rate them. Instead it registers and inspects each practice against five regulations. All 60 Tower Hamlets practices on our list are CQC-registered; each profile links to its full inspection report.
