Fees & payment
Plain pricing,line by line.
372 Dental sees patients on both NHS and private terms. NHS fees are set nationally and shown below. Private fees are a guide — a full written treatment plan is given to every patient before any treatment is booked, so the total cost is agreed before you start.
NHS fees
NHS fees are set nationally.
The figures below are the current NHS fees for a course of treatment in England — the same at every NHS dental practice. Children, pregnant patients, and certain benefit recipients are exempt from NHS charges.
[TBD — verify current NHS Band 1/2/3 figures at build time]
| Band | Fee | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| NHS Band 1 | £26.80 | Examination, diagnosis (including X-rays), advice on prevention, scale and polish if clinically necessary, and a referral to another dentist or doctor if needed. |
| NHS Band 2 | £73.50 | Everything in Band 1, plus additional treatments such as fillings, root canal work, or extractions. |
| NHS Band 3 | £319.10 | Everything in Bands 1 and 2, plus crowns, dentures and bridges — laboratory-built work. |
| NHS urgent | £26.80 | Treatment for an urgent dental problem — typically a single visit to relieve pain or address an immediate problem. |
Private fees — guide
A guide to private treatments.
Private fees vary by case complexity and material choice. The figures below are starting points for the most commonly requested treatments. The full schedule is given in writing at consultation — no surprises before treatment starts.
[TBD — port the existing site's "Private Fee Schedule" verbatim once Fabio confirms the current figures with the practice]
| Treatment | Indicative fee |
|---|---|
| New patient examination (private) | £30 |
| Routine examination (existing private patient) | from £45 |
| Hygienist appointment, 30 min | from £55 |
| White composite filling | from £95 |
| Crown (porcelain bonded) | from £550 |
| Take-home whitening (custom trays + gel) | from £325 |
| Root canal treatment, single canal | from £290 |
| Extraction, simple | from £95 |
Hygienist and routine private fees are illustrative — every treatment plan written for you will quote the exact figure before you commit. Payment by card or bank transfer; we don't ask for payment up front.
