At Rudheath Dental Health Centre, we are proud to offer NHS dental services, providing essential dental care to help maintain your oral health and wellbeing. Our team is committed to delivering high-quality treatment in a friendly, professional environment, ensuring you receive the care you need.

What Does NHS Dental Care Cover?

NHS dentistry is focused on clinically necessary treatments to maintain good oral health, prevent disease, and relieve pain.

📌 Cosmetic treatments (e.g., whitening, veneers, and cosmetic orthodontics) are not covered under NHS care but are available as private treatment options.

NHS Dental Bands & Fees

NHS treatment costs are set nationally and fall into three bands:

🦷 Band 1 – £25.80

🦷 Band 2 – £70.70

🦷 Band 3 – £306.80

The NHS Choices website gives more information about banded treatments.

NHS dental fees are reviewed by the government. Some patients may be eligible for free NHS dental treatment.
