No, your first appointment is there to meeting you, discuss your treatment needs and carry out a comprehensive examination and x-rays if required.  Your treatment options and costs will be discussed and following our meeting a written plan will be sent to you for your consideration.  You will be invited to attend a further meeting, included in your consultation package, to answer your questions and commence if you wish.  Occasionally dental impressions for treatment option planning are taken at these visits

The exception is root canal treatments that tend to be provided at the first appointment.

Your treatment options and costs will be discussed at your consultation meetings and provided within your personalised written treatment plan.  Treatments tend to be split into stages and payments can be made at each stage rather than full payment at the start of treatment.

You should continue to see your dentist for your general dental and hygiene care.  With your permission we can provide details of your specialist treatment to your dentist to keep them updated.

The practice has some dedicated parking bays for patients adjacent to the health centre.  Alternatively there is a visitors car park a few minutes walk away.
