NHS Services & Fees
You will receive high-quality care from us whether it’s an NHS appointment or Private. The NHS offers treatments that are clinically necessary to maintain good oral health. This can include:
- Basic examinations
- Fillings
- Basic extractions
- Prosthetics (crowns, dentures, bridges)
- Some surgical procedures, including basic root canal procedures
NHS dental treatments are available to anyone resident in the UK, and you do not have to be in receipt of a benefit to receive this service. These services are subsidised by the government, making them more affordable for the patient. The table below lists the Band categories and the associated fee the patient must pay.
There are no fees for patients that are in receipt of specific benefits and being treated on the NHS. The benefits that are accepted for NHS dentistry are listed here
Certain treatments are not available on the NHS at this clinic, such as Hygienist treatments, cosmetic dentistry, Orthodontics or advanced surgical treatments. Your dentist will explain the difference and the options before you embark on a treatment.
We have a limited contract with NHS England to provide dental services. We already have many patients on our active NHS list. If you are a new patient, you could be placed on a waiting list to join us and in some instances, we cannot guarantee being able to take on new patients on NHS.
