What the Index tracks

The signals that move dental hiring.

Vacancy demand by region

Where the shortages are most acute across the four nations.

Time to fill

How long roles stay open, by role type and location.

Salary & rate movements

UDA rates, associate pay and how they are shifting.

Sponsorship & visa trends

Volumes, timelines and outcomes for overseas routes.

Associate migration trends

How clinicians are moving between regions and sectors.

NHS capacity gaps

Where access is failing and where it is recovering.

Methodology

Built on the workforce, not guesswork.

The Index is compiled from Dentello's own placement and activation data across 500+ partner practices and 300+ dentists activated, spanning all four UK nations, combined with verified public sources. Every published figure is sourced; where a figure is not yet confirmed, it is withheld rather than invented.
