Questions and answers
Are you accepting new NHS patients in Hillsborough?
Yes — we're currently registering new NHS and private patients from Hillsborough and across north-west Sheffield. NHS places can come and go, so it's worth getting in touch sooner rather than later. Call 0114 234 4810 or use our contact form to register.
Whereabouts is the practice and how do I get there?
We're at 1 Victor Street, Sheffield S6 2SA, just off Langsett Road and close to Hillsborough Corner. The Supertram Blue route stops at Hillsborough and Hillsborough Park, and buses run frequently along Middlewood Road and Penistone Road. Plan your journey at travelsouthyorkshire.com.
Which areas do you look after?
We're a local practice for Hillsborough, Owlerton, Wadsley, Walkley, Malin Bridge and Wisewood, and we welcome patients from right across the north-west of Sheffield and the wider S6 area.
How much does NHS dental treatment cost?
NHS charges in England for 2026 fall into three bands. Band 1 (£27.90) covers an examination, diagnosis and advice, including any X-rays and a scale and polish if needed. Band 2 (£76.60) covers fillings, extractions and root canal work. Band 3 (£332.10) covers crowns, dentures and bridges. Some patients are exempt from charges.
What happens at my first appointment?
Your dentist will take a full history, examine your teeth, gums and soft tissues, and take any X-rays needed. You'll get a clear explanation of anything they find and an agreed plan, including costs, before any treatment starts.
I'm nervous about the dentist — can you help?
You're far from alone, and we see plenty of anxious patients. Let us know when you book and we'll allow extra time, talk you through each step and never rush you. Getting back into regular check-ups usually makes future visits much easier.
How do I book an appointment?
Call us on 0114 234 4810 during opening hours, or request an appointment through our contact form. We offer appointments Monday to Friday.
Do you offer private treatments like teeth whitening or Invisalign?
Yes. Alongside NHS care we offer private options including professional teeth whitening, Invisalign clear aligners and dental implants. Call 0114 234 4810 to arrange a consultation and we'll talk through what would suit you.
