For referring dentists

Refer a patient, and stay in the loop.

We accept referrals from dentists across Greater Manchester for implants, oral surgery, endodontics, orthodontics and imaging. Send the details below and we will contact your patient within one working day. Your patient returns to you for their routine care.

How it works

Step one

You send the referral

Fill in the form below. Attach radiographs, photographs or a scan if you have them. It takes a few minutes and you do not need an account.

Step two

We contact your patient

We get in touch with your patient within one working day to arrange their assessment. You are copied in so you know it has been picked up.

Step three

You get a report

We write to you after the assessment, and again when treatment is finished, so the patient's notes with you stay complete.

What we accept

If what your patient needs is not on this list, call us and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right practice for it.

Patient consent

Please only send us a patient's details once you have their consent to do so. We hold referral information as part of the patient's clinical record and handle it under our privacy policy. If a patient needs to be seen urgently, call us rather than using this form.

What you get back

A referral should not mean losing sight of your patient. You stay their dentist, and we keep you informed at every stage.

  • A written report after the assessment appointment, with the plan and costs
  • A copy of any radiographs or scans we take
  • A discharge summary when treatment is finished
  • Your patient comes back to you for their routine care

Want to talk it through first?

If you are not sure whether a case is one for us, call and speak to a clinician before you refer. We would rather tell you straight away.
