How To?

Register with a Dentist

It makes sense to register with a dentist that is local to where you live. However, you do not have to live locally and you may wish to choose a dentist closest to where you work or spend most of your time.

It may also not be possible to register with your most local dentist, as there is only a certain number of patients each dentist can accept. 

For information on how to find your local dentist use the link below:

To register with a dentist is free of charge but for dental treatment even on the NHS you are required to pay. The treatments go up in Bands:.

If you chose to go to a private dentist, the charges for treatment may be much higher and will vary from dentist to dentist.
