Faversham Smiles are pleased to offer NHS Dental Services to patients who require treatments necessary to maintain healthy teeth and gums. Treatments such as fillings, crowns, dentures and root canal therapy should be available on the NHS but prices will depend on which of the 3 bands the items on your course of treatment fall under. If you fall under certain criteria you may be entitled to FREE NHS dental treatment, otherwise you will have to pay a contribution towards the cost of your care.
