Reliable, compliant locum dental support when you need it
Keep your practice running when you’re short staffed
Staff absence doesn’t need to mean cancelled clinics or extra pressure on your permanent team. S4S Locum Team provides experienced, GDC-registered Locum Dental Nurses and Hygienists for planned and last-minute cover, helping your practice maintain continuity of care for patients.
Quick and straightforward to book
Need temporary cover? Book Online, or contact our team by phone, WhatsApp or email. We’ll quickly understand what you need and work to find the right locum for your practice.
Compliance taken care of
Once your booking is confirmed, we can provide the relevant compliance documentation quickly and securely, giving your practice confidence that the locum joining your team has been properly checked and approved through our rigorous compliance process.
Experienced Locum Dental Nurses you can rely on
Practice-ready
Our Locum Dental Nurses are experienced with commonly used dental software, including R4 and SOE, and are used to adapting quickly to different practice environments. This helps them settle in quickly and support a smooth-running clinic from day one.
Rigorous compliance
Every Locum Dental Nurse is GDC-registered and completes our thorough compliance process, including Enhanced DBS, Right to Work, indemnity, Hepatitis B evidence, qualifications and relevant CPD checks. Compliance is checked before we introduce them to clients and monitored on an ongoing basis.
The right fit for your practice
We get to know our Locum Dental Nurses as individuals and use that knowledge, alongside their location, experience and client feedback, to match the right nurse to the right practice wherever possible.
Dental staffing built around partnerships
S4S Locum Team brings together decades of temporary recruitment experience with first-hand dental knowledge, helping us understand both the staffing pressures practices face and what makes a great locum.
We take the time to get to know your practice, your team and the way you like to work. That means our support isn’t simply about filling an empty shift — it’s about building a dependable staffing partnership and making better, more informed matches between practices and locum professionals.
We also make the practical side as straightforward as possible. Compliance documentation can be provided quickly and securely, while our Client Shift Manager portal gives you real-time visibility of upcoming bookings, booked locums, compliance declarations and previous electronic timesheets.
Our aim is simple: to be a staffing partner you can rely on — responsive when you need us, honest in how we work and committed to doing things properly.
