You can register with a dentist in the same way as you register with a doctor. You firstly need to find a dentist in your area. You then need to ring them and check that they offer NHS treatment and ask them to put your name on the list.
You can also contact NHS Direct on 0845 46 47 to ask them which dentists in your area are accepting NHS patients.
You will need to tell the dentist your NHS number if you have one.
