NHS Dental Treatment & Eligibility
You require a check-up so we can assess your current oral health, identify any risk of future disease, and advise you on the necessary care and treatment to maintain good oral hygiene. Keeping your teeth healthy and clean is essential for long-term oral health.
Cosmetic treatments such as teeth whitening are not covered by the NHS as they are not clinically necessary. Even for necessary treatments, we will offer you the most appropriate NHS treatment. If you choose an alternative treatment option, it will be charged privately.
