Dental Practice Board (DPB)
Welcome to the Dental Practice Board (DPB) for England and Wales homepage. The DPB is the statutory body that administers the General Dental Services of the National Health Service (NHS) and is accountable to the Department of Health and National Assembly for Wales.
It is our responsibility to pay dentists promptly and accurately for treatment provided under the NHS in England and Wales. We also approve more complex treatment for NHS dental patients, monitor the quality of NHS dental treatment provided and carry out regular checks in order to detect and prevent abuse of the service. In addition, we provide information on NHS dentistry to dentists, academics, civil servants and others engaged in research and/or the management of NHS provision.
