Why Dental Professionals Choose Consultax?
Genuine Dental Sector Expertise
We understand the financial landscape of dentistry — NHS contract income, private treatment revenue, associate agreements, equipment financing, and everything in between. Our advice is always tailored to your practice, never copied from a general business template.
Proactive Tax Planning That Puts Money Back in Your Pocket
Most dental professionals are paying more tax than they need to. We identify legitimate, HMRC-compliant strategies to reduce your tax burden — from corporation tax and dividend planning to capital allowances and pension contributions. Planning ahead makes a measurable difference.
A Dedicated Accountant Who Knows Your Numbers
You will always work with a single, dedicated accountant who understands your practice and your goals. No call centres, no passing you around. Just clear, consistent, expert support throughout the year.
Complete Compliance — Fully Managed
From annual accounts and corporation tax returns to payroll, VAT, and Making Tax Digital, we handle every compliance obligation accurately and on time. You stay compliant; we handle the paperwork.
Real-Time Financial Visibility
We work with Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, FreeAgent, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and other leading cloud platforms to give you secure, real-time access to your financial data — so you always know exactly where your practice stands.
Our Dental Practice Accounting Services
Annual Accounts Preparation
Accurate, fully compliant year-end accounts that give you a true picture of your practice's financial health — prepared to the highest standard, every time.
Corporation Tax Planning & Returns
We manage your corporation tax position from start to finish — identifying savings, minimising liabilities, and ensuring every return is filed accurately and well ahead of deadline.
Self-Assessment Tax Returns
For associate dentists, principal dentists, and practice owners with personal tax obligations, we manage your Self-Assessment returns with precision and handle every interaction with HMRC on your behalf.
Management Accounts & Performance Reporting
Monthly or quarterly management accounts give you the financial clarity to make confident decisions. We deliver detailed reports on revenue, profitability, cost control, and cash flow — so you are always acting on facts, not guesswork.
Payroll & Pension Administration
From associates and nurses to receptionists and practice managers, we manage payroll processing, PAYE submissions, pension auto-enrolment, and year-end reporting — accurately, reliably, and without the administrative burden on your team.
VAT Advice & Compliance
Dental practices face specific VAT complexities, particularly around mixed exempt and standard-rated supplies. We provide expert VAT advice, manage your returns, and ensure full compliance with Making Tax Digital regulations.
Cash Flow Forecasting & Budgeting
Strong cash flow is what keeps a practice running smoothly. We help you monitor income and expenditure, plan for equipment investments, manage seasonal fluctuations, and build the financial resilience your practice needs to grow.
Cloud Accounting Solutions
We optimise your accounting systems to deliver real-time financial reporting, automated bank feeds, digital document management, and simplified expense tracking — giving you better information with far less admin.
Practice Acquisition & Expansion Support
Buying a practice, opening a second location, or restructuring your business? We provide due diligence, financial analysis, business valuation, funding support, and strategic guidance at every stage — so you can grow with confidence, not uncertainty.
Business Advisory Services
We go beyond the numbers. As trusted advisors, we help you identify opportunities to improve profitability, control costs, and plan for the long-term future of your practice.
