NHS dental care

Cavehill Dental & Implant Clinic offers NHS dental services for adults and children, although access may be restricted due to high demand. Call 028 9037 0206 to check our latest availabilty.

The NHS provides essential dental care only, which patients require to keep their mouths, teeth and gums healthy and pain-free.

It does not offer cosmetic treatments or advanced treatments such as dental implants, and uses functional rather than aesthetic materials within treatments. As an example, NHS treatment would use amalgam (silver metal) for fillings, rather than a white filling, which will blend better with the natural teeth.

However even as an NHS patient, at Cavehill Dental & Implant Clinic you are still able to upgrade to aesthetic private options for any treatments, should you choose.
