Having just registered with an NHS dentist I’m wondering what the differences are, and whether it’s worth paying for private instead.
What does everyone here use?
As far as I’m aware there are completely private dentists, and then there are dentists who do a mixture of NHS work but also offer the opportunity to do things privately as well. For the latter is it just non-NHS (eg. cosmetic) work that they do privately, or will they do standard fillings etc privately too? In which case if it’s the same dentist in the same practice, what are the benefits of going private? And what are the benefits to the dentist in doing NHS, if they can earn more from private care?
