Locudent is a web platform that connects dental professionals—such as dentists, hygienists, and nurses—with practices offering locum and temporary work opportunities.

Qualified dentists, dental hygienists, therapists, and dental nurses registered with the GDC can register. Dental practices seeking locum cover can also create an account.

‍

Locudent is free to join for dental professionals. Practices may pay a small fee per job listing or subscription, depending on the chosen plan.

We verify all dental professionals using their GDC registration number, ID, and proof of indemnity insurance. This helps maintain safety and trust on the platform.

Once registered, you can browse available jobs, view job details, and apply directly through the platform. You’ll be notified when a practice accepts or responds to your application.

‍

Yes, professionals can set their own availability, preferred working locations, and hourly/daily rates on their profiles.

Locudent lists temporary and locum dental jobs including emergency cover, maternity leave, sick leave, or short-notice absences. (Ranging from 1 day to a few months)
