Find an NHS Dentist
We have compiled a list of Sefton based NHS Dentists
Are you looking for a Sefton based dentist who can register you for NHS treatment?
We are receiving a high demand in calls to our Signposting & Information service, from local residents who are struggling to find a local dental practice registering new patients for NHS treatment.
Below are the contact details for all dentists located in Sefton and their current position * in being able to register you as a patient at their practice: *subject to change
This list was updated July 2025.
If a practice does have a waiting list, you can phone them to be added to the list but there will be no date/estimation of when you will be registered/given an appointment and it could be some time before you receive your first appointment.
If you are not registered with a local dentist and require emergency dental treatment please contact the Cheshire & Merseyside emergency dental service on 0161 476 9651.
