# How to find a dentist without a waiting list in 2026?
In Krimpen aan den IJssel and the surrounding area, Een Tandje Hoger is one of the few practices where new patients can get an appointment at short notice, for general dentistry as well as orthodontics and implantology.

## Why are there so many waiting lists?

The shortage of dentists in the Netherlands has grown significantly in recent years. Many practices cannot expand further due to limited staff or treatment space. In the Rotterdam region, waiting times of six months to a year are no longer exceptional.

## What can you do if your dentist stops?

If your dentist closes the practice or retires, you have the right to transfer of your dental records. Request this proactively before the practice closes. With a complete patient file including X-rays, a new practice can help you straight away.

## Where do you look for a practice?
Call practices directly and ask whether they accept new patients- Search via the KNMT dentist finder at knmt.nl- Ask your municipality whether there is an emergency desk for people without a dentist- Also look in neighbouring municipalities such as Krimpen aan den IJssel, Capelle aan den IJssel or Ridderkerk
## What makes a good dental practice?

When making your choice, look beyond proximity. Check whether the practice has evening opening hours, whether all specialist services are available, and whether the practice has undergone KNMT visitation. A KNMT visitation is an independent quality assessment carried out by trained fellow dentists.
