Will you help me to find an NHS dentist?
No, we provide affordable access to private dental care at NHS-equivalent rates, designed to help those who can’t find an NHS dentist or can afford private fees. As part of our service, we’ll register you as a patient at a trusted dental practice. However, this registration will be on a private basis with our affordable membership fees. Please note that NHS exemptions cannot be applied to our services.
Why can't you just offer NHS?
It's a question we hear often, and we completely understand the frustration many people feel around NHS dental access.
NHS dentistry isn’t something a practice can just decide to offer. The government controls access through a system of NHS dental contracts. These contracts are limited in number and are funded by the government with a fixed annual budget.
Unless the government allocates new NHS funding or a contract becomes available, we legally can’t offer NHS dental care , even if we would like to. This system means that many practices – especially newer or independent ones – can only operate privately.
That’s exactly why we created our Essentials Dentistry Scheme. It’s designed as a cost-effective alternative for patients who can’t access an NHS dentist, offering essential care at a much lower price than standard private fees – with the flexibility to upgrade if needed.
We believe everyone should have access to quality dental care, and we're doing everything we can to make that possible within the system we're given.
Is there any hidden cost? Booking hidden Fee?
There are no hidden costs and no booking fees.
What you see is what you pay – simple, transparent, and affordable care.

Great dentist. Had a hygienist appointment with Mindu and she was great. No discomfort at all throughout the whole procedure. Never had an issue with any of the staff here, they've always been friendly and polite to me.
