If you normally pay for NHS dental treatment, the amount you spend will depend on what clinical treatment you need.
Some people do not have to pay for NHS dental treatment – see Who is entitled to free NHS dental treatment in England?
NHS Dental Charges
There are three NHS charge bands:
- Band 1: £23.80 covers an examination, diagnosis and advice. If necessary, it also includes X-rays, a scale and polish and planning for further treatment.
- Band 2: £65.20 covers all treatment covered by Band 1, plus additional treatment, such as fillings, root canal treatment and removing teeth (extractions).
- Band 3: £282.80 covers all treatment covered by Bands 1 and 2, plus more complex procedures, such as crowns, dentures and bridges.
Fees are correct starting April 2018. For more information, see What is included in each NHS dental band charge?
What if I need more treatment?
If, within two months of completing a course of treatment, you need more treatment from the same charge band or a lower one – such as another filling – you don't have to pay anything extra.
However, after two months of completing a course of treatment , you will have to pay the NHS charge Band (listed above) for any NHS dental treatment received.
Certain treatments (including lost items) are guaranteed for 12 months from the date they were completed:
- fillings
- root fillings
- inlays
- porcelain veneers
- crowns
Treatments provided under this guarantee must be similar or related to the original treatment, but they don't have to be like for like.
Emergency or urgent treatment
If you require urgent care, you will only need to pay one Band 1 charge of £21.60. Most urgent treatments can be done in one appointment.
Once your urgent course of treatment is complete, you may be advised to make another appointment for a separate course of non-urgent treatment. In this case, the relevant Band charge will apply.
When you don’t have to pay
You don’t have to pay a dental charge:
- for denture repairs
- to have stitches removed
- if your dentist has to stop blood loss
- if your dentist only has to write out a prescription – however, if you pay for prescriptions, you’ll have to pay the usual prescription charge of £8.60 when you collect your medicine(s)
Referral to another dentist
If you're referred to another dentist to complete your treatment, the amount you pay is dependent on the type of referral and whether the NHS treatment is carried out as one course of treatment. Your dentist will inform you how much you have to pay.
If you’re referred to a private dentist (and you accept this option) you will:
- pay the appropriate NHS Band charge to the dentist who referred you, and
- pay a fee for the dental work carried out by the private dentist you are referred to
