Children's Dentistry Costs in London

Children's dentistry costs depend on what your child actually needs, which is why we examine first and quote second. A first consultation costs £195, and that fee goes towards any treatment that follows. You leave it with a clear, itemised breakdown.

How long treatment takes depends on the work required. We explain the expected timeline at the first visit.

Our clinical team is led by Dr Ope Sodeinde, GDC-registered specialist periodontist (GDC No. 104071).

How we manage your child's dental health and costs

Worry about cost usually arrives at the same time as worry about a tooth: a dark spot, a broken tooth, a child in pain. Our paediatric dentistry in London covers all of it, from fluoride treatments and hygiene visits to protective crowns, and we use dental x-rays where needed so the diagnosis, and therefore the quote, is accurate.

Routine dental exams and cleanings are the cheapest dentistry there is, because they keep the expensive problems from developing. We discuss the cost and expected lifespan of each option at the consultation.

Transparent pricing for paediatric care

We use a diagnosis-first consultation so you only pay for treatment that is necessary. You see an itemised plan, with what is being treated and why, before any price is agreed.

That planning covers everything from routine children's dental exams and cleanings to space maintainers that hold room for adult teeth. Our dentists manage every stage at our Primrose Hill practice.

Who can access our paediatric care

We treat children of all ages. Many parents feel guilty about missed appointments or decay that has crept in; we focus on the child in front of us, not on how they got here. Fear of the dentist is a real hurdle and we work at your child's pace. The plan may include dental hygiene for children and teens or early orthodontic treatment to guide growth. Whether you are moving from NHS care to private or booking a first check-up, a consultation lets us assess what your child needs.

Your child's dental care path

Paediatric clinical assessment

We examine your child to identify what they need, and confirm the costs and timeline for any work. This visit is also where your child gets used to the practice in Primrose Hill.

Preventive care planning

We look at long-term health first and discuss options such as fluoride treatments to protect developing teeth, so that only necessary procedures go on the plan.

Child-focused dental treatment

We carry out the agreed work with comfort in mind. For nervous children we provide care for anxious children. We are honest about how many visits it will take.

Post-treatment review

We check that the treatment is stable and your child is comfortable, so small issues are caught before they become bigger and costlier.

Ongoing growth monitoring

Children's mouths change quickly. Regular reviews keep future costs down by catching problems early.

Clinical expertise for your child

Our preventive and restorative care for children includes children's dental exams and cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental hygiene for children and teens.

Our clinical team repairs damaged teeth with tooth-coloured composite resin and conservative dental bonding, uses a diode laser for tongue-tie division, and offers removable aligners where alignment treatment is appropriate.

We also offer nutrition advice for families, which is the cheapest prevention there is.

Our approach with young patients

We keep consultations unhurried and free of pressure, and give honest options so you can judge the value of any treatment for yourself. Our children's dental aftercare guide helps you protect the results.

Common questions about children's dentistry costs

How much does children's dentistry cost?

The consultation is £195 and goes towards treatment. Treatment fees depend on what your child needs, and you get a full breakdown at that first visit so there are no surprises.

How long does treatment take?

It depends on whether your child needs a routine check-up or more involved work. Some visits are brief; some plans take several appointments. We set out the timeline at the first visit.

What if my child is anxious?

We adapt the visit, and where a child needs more than a slower pace we offer special needs dentistry and options for managing distress.

Why choose private care for a child?

Care ranges from preventive check-ups to treating dental injuries. Private care suits families who cannot access NHS treatment or want more choice over appointment times and length. We help you decide what is right for your family.

Arrange a paediatric dental review

You get a clear breakdown of costs at the first visit, once we have assessed your child. You can see what happens at your child's dental consultation and how to book to get started.
