Your first appointment will usually be a check-up and assessment (Band 1), during which the dentist will examine your teeth and discuss any treatment needed.

NHS Dental Costs

NHS dental treatment in England uses a simple three-band pricing system. Band 1 covers examinations, diagnosis, and preventive care such as scale and polish, and costs £27.40.

Band 3 covers more complex work including crowns, dentures, and bridges, costing £326.70. Many groups are entitled to free NHS dental treatment, including children under 18, those under 19 in full-time education, pregnant women, new mothers (within 12 months of birth), and people receiving certain benefits such as Universal Credit, Income Support, or Pension Credit. If you are unsure whether you qualify, ask the practice or check the NHS website.

This practice is both accepting new NHS patients and well-rated by the CQC — a combination that can be difficult to find. If you're looking to register, it may be worth acting quickly as availability can change.
