What it costs

The NHS band figures, with a private appointment.

NHS dental charges in England come in three bands. Our check-up, small white filling and crown prices are set at exactly those figures, so the everyday treatments cost what they would on the NHS. The difference is the appointment: booked when you want it, unhurried, with the diagnosis shown to you on screen.

Anything beyond that is priced in a written estimate before work begins, so there is nothing to find out about afterwards.

And the bigger treatments: teeth whitening £400, composite bonding £400 a tooth, Invisalign from £999, a single implant with its crown from £1,700, dentures from £332.10 a jaw. The consultation for any of them is free.

Questions

Asked most often at reception.

Are you an NHS dentist?

No. The Dental Barn is a private practice. Our check-up, small white filling and crown prices are set at the NHS band charges (£27.90, £76.60 and £332.10), which is where the phrase NHS-level prices comes from. If you are entitled to free NHS dental treatment, an NHS practice will cost you less than we do.

Is the consultation really free?

For Invisalign, composite bonding, dental implants and smile design, yes. A refundable deposit holds the appointment. A new patient examination for general dentistry is £27.90.

How do I book?

Online through our booking page at any hour, by phone on 01676 611000, or by WhatsApp using the green button at the corner of the page.

I am in pain now. Can you see me?

Call us as early in the day as you can. An emergency appointment is £27.90 during opening hours and £150 outside them, and covers the examination and the immediate relief; any treatment that follows is priced from the fee guide. What we can do the same day.

Do you see children?

Yes. A child’s examination with x-rays is £15, a child’s hygiene visit £35, and fissure sealants, which protect the biting surfaces of new back teeth, are £35 a tooth.

I am frightened of the dentist. Will that be a problem?

No. The dentist tells you what is about to happen before it happens, and you can stop at any point. For longer or surgical treatment, sedation is available at £350 a session; Dr Amelia Reed has provided sedation in hospital oral surgery for over a decade.

Can I spread the cost?

Our membership plans spread routine care (examinations and hygiene visits) across the year for a monthly amount, with a discount on treatment. The fees page lists the plans.
