NHS Price List
NHS dental charges from April 2024
The charge you pay depends on the treatment you need to keep your mouth,
gums and teeth healthy. You will only ever be asked to pay one charge for each
complete course of treatment, even if you need to visit your dentist more than
once to finish it – either Band 1, Band 2 or Band 3.
You will pay one of the three charges below:
Band 1 course of treatment – £26.80
This covers an examination, diagnosis (eg X-rays), advice on how to prevent future
problems, a scale and polish if needed, and application of fluoride varnish or fissure
sealant. If you require urgent care, even if your urgent treatment needs more than
one appointment to complete, you will only need to pay one Band 1 charge.
Band 2 course of treatment – £73.50
This covers everything listed in Band 1 above, plus any further treatment such as
fillings, root canal work or if your dentist needs to take out one or more of your teeth.
Band 3 course of treatment – £319.10
This covers everything listed in Bands 1 and 2 above, plus crowns, dentures and bridges.
