A starting point for your search. No Dental Registry assessment has been awarded.
Being included in the directory is not an approval or an accreditation. Read the profile’s sources and confirm current information with the clinic.
Documents and supporting evidence reviewed through our remote assessment process.
The clinic’s profile should show the scope, evidence and review date. Verified does not include the on-site inspection required for Accredited status.
Document checks plus an in-person clinic inspection against Dental Registry’s standards.
Our UK-informed framework draws on relevant dental standards and guidance. This is Dental Registry’s own accreditation, not CQC approval. See each clinic’s profile for the recorded inspection scope and date.
Check each clinic’s profile for its assessment scope, evidence and latest review date.
Look for the assessed location, the scope of checks, supporting sources, review date and renewal information. Missing information should be shown as not yet recorded.
In this preview, owner-confirmed Verified statuses are identified on profiles. The underlying assessment reports and dates have not yet been attached.
Dental Registry's own assessment framework is separate from statutory regulation and professional registration. No shield guarantees an outcome or replaces an individual clinical assessment.
Featured placement and external review scores are separate from assessment status. AI cannot award Verified or Accredited status.
Dental Registry is part of Sifa Care, a UK-based health tourism operator. Our developing framework draws on relevant UK dental professional standards and practice guidance, adapted to the assessment scope and the requirements in each clinic’s country.
Our framework requires relevant licences and registrations to be checked against appropriate authoritative sources.
Proposed criteria cover communication, consent, treatment information, aftercare and complaints.
Verified is the virtual and desk-based route. Accredited additionally requires an on-site assessment and approval.
The framework is under development and subject to clinical and country-specific review. Each profile identifies the evidence currently available.
Dental Registry operates a private assessment framework. Its awards do not constitute GDC registration or CQC approval, and do not provide the same regulatory arrangements as treatment in the UK. UK company location alone does not establish clinical quality. No assessment guarantees treatment outcomes.
