Which dentists in Durham should I compare first?

We show up to 5 dental providers serving Durham: UK-wide online providers plus local County Durham practices.

Ratings and rankings are our editorial opinion, based on our published methodology — they are not dental advice and practices cannot pay to change a score. Where a practice has no reviews we show "Not yet rated" — we never invent scores. Listings labelled Featured or Referral partner are paid placements; payment affects visibility only, never ratings or match results. We may receive a fee when you send a private-treatment enquiry. Private treatment prices are indicative — always confirm directly with the practice.

No. NHS dental charges are fixed bands in England — £27.90, £76.60, or £332.10 per course of treatment at every NHS practice, and you only ever pay the highest band once per course. Only private treatment, such as whitening, implants, or aligners, varies in price between practices.
