COMMON QUESTIONS

FAQs

What's the difference between NHS, Private and Denplan care?

NHS care covers essential treatment at fixed, nationally set fees. Private care offers more flexibility over materials, timing and cosmetic options. Denplan is a monthly payment plan that spreads the cost of routine and preventive care. At Lochside Dental Dumfries, you can choose whichever route suits you.

Are you accepting new patients?

Yes. Lochside Dental Dumfries is currently welcoming new NHS, Private and Denplan patients, including walk-in registrations.

Can I register my whole family?

Yes — you're welcome to register family members together when you book, so everyone is looked after at the same practice.

What is an Access Care patient?

If you're not able to join our NHS list straight away, you may be able to register as an Access Care patient. You'll be charged similar prices to NHS treatment, and moved onto the NHS list within the following six months.

What should I expect at my first visit?

A relaxed introduction to the practice, a full check of your dental health, and a clear, unhurried explanation of any next steps — with digital imaging used to help show you exactly what we see.
