Are you accepting new patients?

Yes — we are accepting new NHS patients

Anstey Family Dental Centre is currently welcoming new NHS and private patients. You do not need a referral — simply contact us to register.

Getting started

How to register

  1. Get in touch

    Call us on 0116 236 2534 or use our online booking form. Tell us you're a new patient and whether you'd like NHS or private care.

  2. Book your first appointment

    We'll arrange a convenient time for a new patient check-up. This usually takes around 30–40 minutes and includes an examination, X-rays if needed, and a chat about your dental health goals.

  3. Attend and meet the team

    Arrive a few minutes early to complete a short medical history form. Our friendly reception team will welcome you and make sure you feel comfortable before you see the dentist.

Your first visit

What to bring

  • A list of any medicines you're taking (or the packets themselves)
  • Details of any allergies, medical conditions, or recent hospital treatment
  • Your NHS exemption certificate or evidence of entitlement (if applicable)
  • Any previous dental X-rays if you have them (helpful but not essential)

NHS costs

NHS treatment charges

NHS dental charges in England are set nationally and divided into three bands. Whatever treatment you receive within a single band, you pay just one charge per course of treatment — you'll never be billed more than one band fee at a time.

  • Band 1 £27.90

    Check-up, diagnosis, X-rays, scale & polish

  • Band 2 £76.60

    Fillings, extractions, root canal

  • Band 3 £332.10

    Crowns, dentures, bridges

Charges effective April 2026. Set by NHS England and reviewed annually. Some patients are exempt — ask at reception or visit nhs.uk for details.

Your first appointment

What to expect

Your first appointment is a chance for us to get to know you and understand your dental history. The dentist will carry out a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and soft tissues, and may take X-rays to get a complete picture of your oral health.

We'll talk through anything we find in plain English and work with you to agree a treatment plan that fits your needs and budget. There's no pressure — we want you to feel informed and in control at every step.

If you're nervous about visiting the dentist, please let us know when you book. Our team is experienced in helping anxious patients feel at ease, and we'll do everything we can to make your visit comfortable. Read our nervous patients guide →
