Website now, software next
Dental marketing, built for practices.
A patient choosing a dentist searches for one nearby, then checks the reviews, the practice website and whether the dentist is on the General Dental Council register. bamboo already scores and answers those signals for care providers. The software is not open to dental practices yet. The website build and our team running the services are available now, and this page covers all of it.

A site we built
drsheelmehta.com, a bespoke site we built.
A consultant clinical oncologist's private practice site, built and run by Bridgehead and live since 6 November 2026. It states her GMC number and qualifications, says what she treats and where, and explains how fees work.
What the site has
The pages of your site.
01 Home
Who you are, where you are, whether you take new patients and how to book.
02 The team
Each dentist, hygienist and therapist, with qualification, country of qualification and GDC number.
03 Treatments
A page for each treatment: what it involves, how long it takes and what it costs.
04 Prices
Fees stated plainly, and what is NHS and what is private.
05 New patients
How to join, what the first visit covers and what to bring.
06 Contact
Address, opening hours, phone and a form that reaches your inbox.
How a build runs
From first call to live.
01 We read your registers and your current site
Your regulator's register, your reviews and what your existing site says, so the first draft starts from fact.
02 We write it with you
The pages in your own words, checked against the rules for your profession.
03 You approve it
Nothing goes live until you have signed off the copy.
04 We host it and look after it
On the £99 plan, or the £345 plan if you want us to handle the uploads as well.
What people check
How dental practices get chosen.
The GDC register
Every dentist, hygienist and therapist in the UK is on a public register of who may practise. The GDC's advertising guidance asks for each named person's registration number.
Reviews and the NHS listing
Google reviews and the practice's listing on the NHS website carry the star ratings and comments patients read when they compare practices.
Your own website
Whether it shows your team, your prices and how to book, and whether Google and ChatGPT can read it well enough to name you when someone asks for a dentist nearby.
The rules
What your advertising has to follow.
The GDC's guidance on advertising
A website that names a dental professional has to show their qualification, the country it was gained in and their GDC number. A practice website should also show the practice's name, address and contact details, how to complain, and when the site was last updated.
The ASA and the CAP Code
Adverts have to be legal, decent, honest and truthful. A testimonial cannot stand in as evidence for a claim, and a claim that a treatment works needs evidence behind it.
CQC registration
Private and NHS dental practices in England register with the CQC for the regulated activities they carry on, and the register is public.
What we would publish first
The first three pages for dental practices.
01 A page for each dentist
Name, GDC number, qualification, interests and a photograph, so a search for the dentist's name lands on a page the practice controls.
02 A page for each treatment you sell
Check-ups, hygiene, implants and aligners: what each involves, how long it takes and what it costs, in the words patients search.
03 Straight answers to what patients ask
Is it painful, how long does it last, what happens if it fails. Written once, kept current, and quoted back by Google and ChatGPT.

Questions
Before you join.
Is bamboo open to dental practices?
Not yet. bamboo is built and running for CQC-registered care homes and home care agencies. Dental practices are on the CQC register too, which is why we expect to open to them, but the rank, the rival comparison and the review sources all need adapting first.
Will it work for an NHS practice and a private one?
We expect to cover both. Which practices you are ranked against, and which rules apply to your advertising, depend on what you offer, so the first thing we would ask is how your patients pay.
Can I use bamboo today?
The website build is available now. bamboo, the software, is built and running for CQC-registered care providers and is not open to this profession yet. Join the waitlist and we write to you when it is, with the price before you decide.
What does the website cost?
£1,995 plus VAT to build it. After that, £99 a month plus VAT for hosting, security and maintenance, or £345 a month plus VAT if you also want us to upload and manage your content. Anything beyond that is £100 an hour plus VAT, quoted first.
Do I need bamboo to have the website?
No. The website is sold on its own. The software is a separate subscription that we offer when it opens to your profession.
Does joining the waitlist cost anything?
No. We use your details to write to you about this and for nothing else.
