About Us

We provide a full range of NHS treatments in our practice or refer appropriately where specialist treatment is required. The charges for NHS treatments are set by Practitioner Services and are same for every NHS dentist in Scotland. Dental examination is FREE of charge for everyone.

Following a dental examination, your dentist will advise you of the treatment you require and the likely cost. We will also provide an itemised account, if requested.

NHS treatment is free for:

• Everyone aged under 26;
• Pregnant women and nursing mothers, until the baby is 12 months old;
• Those with certificated exemption from payment because of income

NHS treatment will be provided where clinically necessary to maintain reasonable oral health. Not all treatments are available on the NHS. Cosmetic treatments are not available, for example, ‘white fillings’ on back teeth or a tooth coloured crown on a back tooth. Dental Implants and teeth whitening are also not available on the NHS. We do not provide scale and polish under NHS unless it is clinically indicated.

Your dentist will be able to explain what treatment is and is not allowed on the NHS.
