Why do prices vary so much?
Prices for a dental check-up reflect materials used, the clinician’s experience, the complexity of your individual case, and the clinic’s location. That is how the same treatment can be advertised at £35 by one clinic in Birmingham and £85 by another. “From” prices show the lowest advertised starting point, not a guaranteed final cost.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No. Every figure is a real advertised fee recorded from the clinic, but fees move. The comparison tells you who to call first; the clinic confirms the final number.
Prices shown are indicative of advertised private fees and may change. They are a guide only - your individual treatment may differ. Always confirm the exact cost directly with the clinic before booking.
