How much is a check-up?

An NHS examination is free for everyone in Scotland (a refundable £10 booking fee applies). A private examination is £85 for new patients - and that fee includes x-rays. Existing patients pay £55.

How much does NHS dental treatment cost?

NHS dental examinations are free for everyone in Scotland. For NHS treatment, you pay 80% of the cost, and you'll never pay more than £384 for a single course of treatment - anything beyond that is covered by the NHS. Under-26s, pregnant women and new mothers, and people on certain benefits pay nothing at all.

How much is an emergency appointment?

A private emergency appointment is £85, including a prescription if one is needed - and you don't need to be registered with us. If any treatment is needed beyond the appointment itself, we'll give you a quote before anything is done.

Can I spread the cost of treatment?

Yes - 0% finance is available on treatment from £250 up to £5,000. You pay the first instalment by card, and the rest is collected by Direct Debit over anywhere from 2 to 12 months. Treatment plans over £5,000 can be part-financed, with the remainder paid in full.
