Private vs NHS Dentist – A Brief Discussion

Posted by Mojgan2 on Aug 23, 2016 in Blog, Dental | Comments Off on Private vs NHS Dentist – A Brief Discussion

 

There are many private dental clinics in the UK and particularly in Catford that are doing excellent business. These services have their own lengthy list of loyal patients. More often than not these clinics are opening up new branches at other locations to facilitate a larger section of the society. The point to be noted here is pretty simple. Why do people pay a higher price at these clinics when they can avail the services at a more reasonable cost at the NHS? Actually, there are certain factors that have collectively contributed to this development.

Wider scope

Before discussing those factors, it is important to accept the fact as it is. There are certainly many NHS dentists in Catford who are now offering a blend of NHS and private dental services. Within the periphery of its three price brackets, the NHS offers core restorative dental treatments, which include crowns, bridges, dentures and fillings. Unfortunately, it cannot be denied that there are severe limitations in these services as well.

For example, it offers white filling only in some instances. Moreover, other common restorative treatments like veneers and implants are only available on the NHS in rare and exceptional cases.

Private dental services, on the other hand, provide patients with a wider choice of treatments, including veneers and implants. In other words, private clinics offer a bouquet of services that is much better-tailored to suit individual needs of patients. These clinics are thoroughly focused on providing their patients with better value for money. Thus, they invest handsomely on state-of-the-art infrastructure based on cutting-edge technology. To cut a long story short, there is no dearth of resources to facilitate treatment procedures at private dental clinics.

Time factor

As many will recall, it is really difficult to get to see NHS dentists for routine checkups beyond the conventional business hours of nine to five. It is also frequently heard that appointments for NHS dentists are hard to get. Moreover, a significant number of its former patients complain about treatments there are often stretched over long periods in one hand, while on the other, appointments are rushed.

Considering all these complications, people consider it safer to use emergency dental care from private clinics. Most of the private clinics stretch their working hours till late evenings every working day. Moreover, they also remain open on weekends. To further facilitate patients, most of these dental clinics – if not all – remain functional on bank holidays, Easter, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day.

Conclusion

Considering the pros and cons, an increasing number of folks these days are frequenting private dental clinics to avail comprehensive solutions to their oral health-related issues including dental implants treatments.

Cost has always been the niggling factor where Private Dentistry is concerned however, considering the string of additional benefits offered at these centers, the queues are only getting longer.  Hillview  Dental Centre is one such dependable private dental clinic located in Catford. It has earned a reputation in providing thorough and impressive service in resolving issues related to oral health at much reasonable price.
