Important Legal Requirement – Dental Therapist Applications
Due to changes in UK immigration rules effective 22 July 2025, we are only able to consider applicants who:
* Already have the legal right to work in the UK without requiring visa sponsorship, or
* Are already in the UK on a valid Dental Therapist visa or Skilled Worker status that was granted before the regulatory change and can be verified.
Under the current regulations, new Skilled Worker visa sponsorship is no longer permitted for dental therapists, dental hygienists or dental nurses. Unfortunately, this means we cannot progress applications from candidates who do not already meet these right-to-work requirements.
If you are currently in the UK on a Dental Nurse visa, you may wish to consider applying for one of our Dental Nurse vacancies instead.
Thank you for your understanding, and for the time you have taken to apply.
