The cost of your cosmetic dentistry oxford treatment will depend on several factors. The first and biggest factor that will influence the cost will be what type of cosmetic treatment you have, the prices of cosmetic dentistry vary widely. Some treatments are short and relatively inexpensive while others will require multiple visits to your Oxford dentist and require multiple payments.

Where you have your treatments carried out at will also affect the price, different Oxford dental clinics charge different prices. A private Oxford dentistry will have very specialist equipment, the cost of this equipment will be very high which will mean the cost of treatment will be high. All professional Oxford dentists have to undergo specialist training in the field of cosmetic dentistry, they have to study longer and gain more qualifications than standard NHS dentists. As the dentists are highly trained their hourly rate will be higher which will be put on top of the cost of treatment.

With certain cosmetic dentistry treatments you will be able to choose which materials are used. For example if you were to have a dental filling you would be able to choose which material the filling will be, this could be either gold, silver or porcelain. Porcelain is much like a tooth substance and looks identical to a tooth so it will be more expensive than a standard silver filling.

Dental bridges are used to fill in haps left by missing or decayed tooth, they can replace up to several teeth. The way they work is by using teeth near the gap as a support to hold in place the false tooth. A bridge is available in gold, silver or porcelain. They cost anywhere between £250 - £750 per tooth.

Gum contouring is a treatment that corrects gums that are highly visible or too large for the teeth. They use a special laser that shaves away the excess gum tissue; the Oxford dentist will then shape the gum using the laser. The cost for this treatment at a dentistry is between £250 - £450

Root canal treatment is used to remove pulp from an infected tooth, by removing the pulp it removes the infection and prevents the tooth from rotting and building up plaque. The cost for this treatment is between £200 - £350.

As discussed before one of the main factors that will decide the cost of your cosmetic dentistry oxford treatment will be which Oxford dentistry you have your treatment at. Be sure to not just go with the cheapest dentistry, make sure you check out 3-4 Oxford dentists, look at how qualified the dentists are and what treatments they offer.
