NHS Dental Charges Explained
NHS dental treatment is divided into three standard bands, depending on the type of care you need:
Band 1 – £27.40
This covers an examination, diagnosis (eg x-rays), advice on how to prevent future problems, a scale & polish if needed, and application of fluoride varnish or fissure sealant. If you require urgent care, even if your urgent treatment needs more than one appointment to complete, you will only need to pay one Band 1 charge.
Band 2 – £75.30
This covers everything listed in Band 1, plus any further treatment such as filling, root canal work or if your dentist needs to take out one or more of your teeth.
Band 3 – £326.70
This covers everything listed in Band 1 and 2, plus crowns, dentures and bridges.
