What treatment can I get as an NHS patient?

As a registered NHS patient, you can get all the care, advice and treatment you need to keep your mouth, teeth and gums healthy. This includes regular FREE dental check-ups with full mouth screening and access to emergency appointments. Unfortunately due to NHS restrictions we are not permitted to provide various cosmetic treatments within the NHS such as tooth whitening, and posterior tooth coloured (white) fillings/ crowns.
