Halden Dental

A dentist that tells you everything first.

First visits for people who have been putting it off. You see the plan and the price before anything starts, and nothing is added later.

What we do
A calm, sunlit treatment room: a jade dental chair with a folded blanket, linen curtains, a window onto trees and a leafy plant
00:00You arrive

Nobody touches anything until we have talked.

Your first ten minutes are a conversation in the lounge, not in the chair. Tell us what worries you, what hurts and what you can spend.

The clinic lounge: two oak benches, a plant and a window, behind a curved fluted-glass wall
  • Coffee, tea or water

    Made while you fill in one short form.

  • Headphones and a blanket

    Noise-cancelling headphones for the noisy parts, and a blanket if the room feels cold.

  • A hand signal

    Raise your left hand and we stop. Every time, no questions asked.

00:10The scan

See what your dentist sees.

A small camera wand takes a 3D picture of your teeth in about two minutes, with no putty trays. The model builds on a screen in front of you, and your dentist points to anything they find, on your own teeth.

A camera wand, no putty trays, about two minutes. Move your pointer to tilt it.

The plan and the price, before anything starts.

Your dentist goes through every option on this screen: what it is, how long it takes, what it costs and what your insurer is likely to pay. You choose. Nothing is added later.

00:55Before you leave

Before you leave.

We send the claim to your insurer for you, so at the desk you pay only your share. Then you book the next step, or you take the plan home and think about it.

Direct billing

We send the claim while you are still in the chair. You pay only what your plan does not cover.
