Our current view of the service

Updated 17 April 2025

We undertook a follow-up on-site inspection on 7 May 2025. This was carried out to review the actions taken by the registered provider to improve the quality of care and to assess whether the practice was meeting legal requirements.

We had previously undertaken an announced on-site inspection of Antwerp House Dental Practice on 4 February 2025. We had found the registered provider was not providing safe or well-led care and was in breach of regulation 12 Safe care and treatment, and regulation 17 Good governance of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014.

The practice was issued with a warning notice for regulation 12 and conditions were placed on the provider’s registration relating to regulation 17. This inspection on 7 May 2025 was to follow up on the warning notice for the breach of regulation 12 only; an additional inspection will be carried out to follow up on the breach of regulation 17.

During our follow-up inspection, we found the practice was now providing safe care and treatment in accordance with regulation 12.

The practice had improved systems in place to manage risks.

Infection control procedures followed published guidance.

A culture of continuous improvement was starting to be implemented; however time was needed for this to be fully embedded.

Antwerp House Dental Practice is part of Antwerp Dental Group, a dental group provider. The practice is in Cambridge and provides NHS and private dental care and treatment for adults and children.

There was step-free access to the practice and car parking spaces were available near the practice.

The practice had 9 treatment rooms. At the time of our inspection, the dental team consisted of 5 dentists, 4 foundation dentists, 2 hygienists, 1 dental therapist, 2 orthodontic therapists, 1 periodontologist, 1 orthodontist, 9 dental nurses, 4 trainee dental nurses, 4 receptionists, 1 referrals co-ordinator, 3 administrative staff, 1 assistant practice manager and 1 practice manager.
