The English Contractor Monthly Orthodontic Activity dataset provides information about the orthodontic dental activity carried out by dentists on behalf of the NHS in England. Published monthly, the data is released at individual dental contract level and only relate to contracts that provide orthodontic NHS Dental Services.

The dataset will not give the whole picture of NHS dentistry in England as it is possible for other dental services to commissioned locally.
