Private vs NHS Dentist. What's the Difference and Which Should You Choose?

If you live in a suburb of Manchester where you have both private and NHS dentists available, you might be wondering what the difference is and which one you should choose. Here is our rundown on what the differences are between both.

• Private Dentists: Private dental practices offer a variety of cosmetic treatments in addition to standard dental treatments. The biggest difference between private and NHS is the fact you have to pay for any treatment. However, there is much more flexibility in terms of opening and closing times (much better if you're working and finding it hard to get home from Central Manchester). And whilst you have to pay for the service there are a number of payment plans available to make it easier. So now you can bring a bit of Hollywood to Manchester (even if it's just a smile)

• NHS Dentists: Manchester has one of the biggest concentrations of NHS dentists than anywhere else in the country. You might think this would make it easy to get access, but you would be wrong. In some areas there are waiting lists of a few months just to be seen by a dentist. The main difference between an NHS dentist and private dentist is that with an NHS dentist they will only prioritise dental work that requires treatment. Therefore if you want to have your teeth whitened or have a white filling, they're unlikely to do this or offer it through the NHS service.
