Dispatches is investigating the prices NHS dentists are charging their patients for treatment. The NHS does publish price bands for treatments - there are currently three prices ranging from £17 to £204 covering basic treatment such as scale and polish and filings to bridge work and root canals. But many people find their dental bills are far in excess of what Department of Health list price suggests. Many people are confused about what they should pay and what each individual treatment costs.
We want to find out from you about your experiences at the dentist. Do fill in our short survey to help us collect information about the state of the nation's dental bills. You details will be anonymous. The collected information will be used as part of the Dispatches programme The Truth about Your Dentist and we're publishing the results here.
