NHS and private dental income can be reported differently depending on how you receive it and how your business is structured.

Keeping payroll records organised can also make it easier to reconcile staff costs with your wider practice accounts.
Whether a dental practice needs to register for VAT depends on its taxable turnover and the nature of the services provided. Some dental services may be exempt or treated differently from other practice activities, and the position can change as the practice grows.
