Frequently asked questions

How much does a dental check-up cost in Cardiff?
Across the 10 clinics we track in Cardiff, a dental check-up is advertised at £27–£147.40; the midpoint is £64.75. What you actually pay comes down to the clinic you pick and how complex your case turns out to be.
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 £27 by one clinic in Cardiff and £147.40 by another. “From” prices show the lowest advertised starting point, not a guaranteed final cost.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No - they are the advertised private fees we collected from each clinic, and clinics change them. Use them to shortlist, then confirm the exact cost with the clinic before you book.

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.
