Bridget Sampson, director of primary care for NHS Cornwall and Isles of Scilly, said: "We are delighted that the practice has agreed to provide this new much-needed new branch service in Penzance, replacing capacity previously lost and ensuring local people have access to NHS dentistry.
"We have also agreed to provide additional places on top of the town's immediate needs to ensure there is adequate provision going forward and to give people living outside the area an opportunity to receive NHS dental care."
Caroline Pace, on behalf of the practice, which will be based in Market Jew Street, said: "We hope our central position in Penzance, close to the major transport links, will enable many of those in the west of the county to access the service."
