- Managing NHS and private dental income, including keeping clear records where both types of work are undertaken.
- Associate dentist arrangements, such as understanding how income, expenses, and tax responsibilities may be treated.
- Professional expenses and indemnity costs, including recording allowable costs accurately and keeping supporting documentation.
- Dental equipment and capital expenditure, where the accounting and tax treatment can depend on the item and how it is used.
- Staff payroll and employment costs for dental practices with receptionists, nurses, hygienists, or other team members.

FAQs
You may want an accountant who understands dental income, professional expenses, and the different ways dentists work, including self-employment, partnerships, and limited companies. It also helps to work with someone who can explain Self Assessment, bookkeeping, payroll, VAT, and annual accounts in clear terms. CruseBurke provides Accountants for Dentists in Brecon and can tailor support to your role, income sources, and business structure.
Not every self-employed or associate dentist needs the same level of support, but an accountant can help with Self Assessment, expense records, tax returns, and planning. If you have multiple income sources, work across more than one practice, or have complexity around indemnity, subscriptions, or equipment, professional support may be particularly useful. CruseBurke can review your circumstances and recommend an appropriate level of help.
The tax treatment can depend on whether you are employed, self-employed, a partner, or a limited company director, and on how the income is received. NHS and private income both need to be recorded accurately, and any expenses claimed must relate to the work and be allowable. An accountant can help you keep clear records and report the right figures through the relevant tax return or accounts.
Yes, CruseBurke can support dental practices with payroll and VAT where those obligations apply. Payroll may cover dentists, nurses, receptionists, hygienists, and other team members, while VAT treatment can vary depending on the services provided and the practice structure. We can help you understand what records are needed and how to keep your reporting organised.
Allowable expenses depend on your circumstances and must be incurred wholly and exclusively for your work. Common areas may include professional subscriptions, indemnity insurance, certain equipment costs, and other business-related expenses, but the rules are not identical for every dentist. Keeping receipts and clear records is important, and an accountant can help you understand what may be claimable.
Partnerships and limited companies have different accounting, tax, and reporting responsibilities. A partnership may need partnership tax returns and profit allocation records, while a limited company may need annual accounts, Corporation Tax returns, payroll, and director-related reporting. CruseBurke can help you understand the requirements for your structure and keep the necessary records in order.
Switching accountants usually involves confirming your decision, informing your current accountant, and arranging the transfer of relevant records and authorisations. CruseBurke can guide you through the process and help identify the information needed for a smooth handover. The exact steps can vary depending on your existing arrangements and the services you require.
To get started, it helps to provide details of your income sources, business structure, previous accounts or tax returns, bookkeeping records, payroll information where relevant, and any correspondence from HMRC. If you are an associate dentist, principal dentist, or practice owner, the information needed may differ. CruseBurke can outline what is required after an initial discussion about your circumstances.
