Who's taking NHS patients? We'll ask them all.

The online listings go out of date, so the only way to know is to phone each practice. Pick the practices near you and Dito asks every one the same questions: new NHS adults or children, the wait, and how to get on the list.

3 free calls every month, then £0.99 a call, only when someone answers.

How it works

  1. Say what you need

    Plain words, like you'd tell a friend. Pick the business on the map or paste their number.

  2. Dito rings

    A natural-sounding voice on a real UK line handles the conversation, and a few minutes of hold music.

  3. You get the result

    What was agreed, with times, prices and names, plus the full transcript. No answer, no charge.

Why hand this call over

  • Up to five practices rung at once, each asked exactly the same thing, so the answers line up.
  • You see who said yes, who has a waiting list, and who only takes private patients, side by side.
  • Nothing is booked or agreed for you. You pick a practice, then one more call books the appointment.

Questions

Do I need to register with an NHS dentist?
Not in the way you register with a GP. There's no catchment area, and you can go to any practice that has NHS appointments free. That's why it's worth asking several at once.
What if none of them are taking NHS patients?
Then you know in minutes rather than over an afternoon of calls. The summary shows any waiting lists and private prices they mentioned. Your local integrated care board (ICB) can also tell you where NHS appointments are available.
I'm in pain. Should I use this?
No. For urgent dental care, call NHS 111, who can find an urgent dental service near you. If it's an emergency, call 999.
What does NHS dental treatment cost?
In England, NHS treatment is charged in bands: £27.90 for a check-up (Band 1), £76.60 if you need fillings or extractions (Band 2), and £332.10 for crowns, bridges or dentures (Band 3). Some people get it free. Our calls are free for your first 3 each month, then £0.99.
What does it cost?
3 calls a month are free with a verified UK mobile number, no card needed. After that, £0.99 per connected call, or less in a bundle: 11 calls for £9.99 or 24 for £19.99. No subscription, and no charge if nobody answers.
Will they know it's an AI?
If asked, Dito says it's an AI assistant calling on your behalf. It never pretends to be you, and it only shares the details your task needs.
