it will still be here when your place comes up. We have been, for half
a century, and we’ll be here for the next.

COMMON QUESTIONS
What people usually ask.
Can't find your answer?
Call reception on 01555 662220 — Mon–Fri, 9–5. We’re happy to talk it through.
Lanark's NHS dental capacity is limited, and we've been the area's NHS provider for over 50 years — so our list of registered patients is large. We absorb new NHS registrations as chair time opens up, typically when a new dentist joins or capacity expands. A wait of up to 2 years is the honest figure across most NHS practices in the area right now.
Our NHS list is currently full, with a typical wait of up to 2 years. You can call 01555 662220 any time and reception will check your position on the list.
Yes — call us. We'll see you privately for the emergency (a standard private emergency fee applies), and you keep your NHS waitlist position. We won't ever leave someone in pain waiting up to two years.
Yes — many waitlist patients do exactly this. Register as a Care Plan or private patient now to start routine care, and we'll move you to NHS when your slot opens. You don't lose your private investment — your Care Plan exams and treatment continue alongside.
