Our editorial standards

TreatmentCosts is independent. We don’t accept payment for rankings, reviews or editorial coverage, and clinics can’t pay to change their prices or position. Our prices come from clinics’ published fees and are checked against public sources; our guides are fact-checked against NHS, NICE, CQC and GDC guidance. If you spot something wrong, tell us and we’ll fix it.

How we make money

TreatmentCosts is currently free to use and not yet monetised. We don’t take payment for rankings, reviews or placement, and a clinic can never pay to change its prices or its position. Viewing prices will always be free for patients.

How we collect and check prices

We collect treatment prices from clinics’ publicly available price lists, fee guides and websites, then normalise them into comparable treatments. A sample of prices is checked by hand, and every price records its source and the date it was seen. Pages are updated as new data arrives.

Sources include clinic websites and published fee guides, supplemented by manual verification and direct submissions from clinics.

Who writes our guides

Sources we reference

Our guides are fact-checked against authoritative UK sources, including the NHS, NICE, Care Quality Commission (CQC) and the General Dental Council (GDC).
