NHS and private dentistry by the Kennet

NHS and private dentistry by the Kennet

Kennet Bridge Dental is a mixed practice. Most routine care — check-ups, fillings, extractions — is available on the NHS. We also offer private treatment where you want more choice: in materials, in appointment times, or in treatments the NHS does not fund, such as aligners, implants or whitening. We tell you which category every treatment falls into, and what it costs, before you agree to anything.

Urgent: In pain today?

We hold same-day emergency slots every weekday morning for anyone in dental pain, whether or not you are already registered with us. Call as early as you can — slots go quickly, and reception will ask a few questions to make sure you're seen by the right person.

NHS charges, in full

Every NHS course of treatment falls into one of three bands. Correct as of 1 April 2026.
