Consent isn’t just about signing a form – it’s a fundamental part of patient care. Yet many patients still don’t receive the clarity they need. A 2004 study found that while 79% of NHS dental patients believed they had given consent, 80% hadn’t been provided with a written treatment plan or a clear explanation of the risks involved.
*Between 2018 and 2020, more than 325 dental negligence claims in England and Wales cited a failure to obtain proper consent.
**Clear, well-documented consent helps reduce risk, build trust, and strengthen patient relationships. Dentistry Consent supports this with clinician-created resources, patient-friendly explainer videos, understanding checks and a secure audit trail.*
