NHS dental fees

NHS dental care

Uppingham Dental & Implant Clinic offers NHS dental services for children under 18 only, although access may be restricted due to high demand. Call 01572 823595 to check our latest availabilty.

The NHS provides essential dental care only, which patients require to keep their mouths, teeth and gums healthy and pain-free.

It does not offer cosmetic treatments or advanced treatments such as dental implants, and uses functional rather than aesthetic materials within treatments. As an example, NHS treatment would use amalgam (silver metal) for fillings, rather than a white filling, which will blend better with the natural teeth.

However even as an NHS patient, at Uppingham Dental & Implant Clinic you are still able to upgrade to aesthetic private options for any treatments, should you choose.

NHS dental care is free of charge for children under the age of 18.
