Changing dentist

I have found an NHS dentist willing to take me on. Is my present private dentist likely to impose a swinging fine or similar when I leave?
I didn't take out a financial 'plan' for my few remaining teeth so they don't have my bank details.

I changed from private to private earlier this year, no penalties, my old dentist didn’t even know where I was going. I only moved as my existing dentist retired and parking at the location was impossible, I used to work nearby.

No! You don't belong to a dentist. Just cancel any appointments you have coming up.
