Representation
We are the voice of dentists and dental students in the UK. From pay to prevention, we campaign and provide support on the issues that matter to you.
As a professional body and trade union, our duty is to serve the needs of our members.
We work to ensure that the voice of dentists is heard across the UK by providing data, briefings and information to the Government, lobbying for change to improve conditions for dentists and their teams. We listen when members speak up, using your stories and evidence from the frontline to bring dentists together and enact change.
Together we can achieve more than we can individually. Together, we are stronger.

Our vision for the CDS
The nation’s ability to deliver dental treatment for some of the most vulnerable groups in our society is at risk. Our vision is a call to action from English community dentists themselves on how to end a crisis that has gone under the radar of decision makers for far too long, asking all parties involved with community dentistry to make sure the service is finally given the priority it deserves.
