Your treatment costs explained
We want to make quality dental care affordable and accessible for all. We offer NHS treatments for everyday oral health and private dentistry treatments for when you want to enhance your smile.
The charge you pay depends on the treatment you need to keep your teeth and gums healthy. All charges apply to an overall course of treatment, and not the individual items within the course of treatment.
You will only have to pay one charge for each course of treatment – even if you need to visit your dentist more than once to finish it. You do not have to pay to have your dentures repaired. You may need to pay all, or some, of your treatment costs before you start a course of treatment.
Always ask the practice for a receipt. If you are interested in any of our services and require an appointment, contact us on 01978 845 391
