At iCare Dental Croydon, a new patient examination costs £25, a basic scale and polish is £65, home teeth whitening is £265 and a Straumann dental implant is £1,250. Checking dental prices in Croydon before you book is sensible, and in this guide we set out what each common treatment costs at our private dental clinic in Saffron Central Square, what affects the final figure, and how to get a written treatment plan before you commit.
All prices below come from our published price list as of October 2026. Prices may vary depending on clinical assessment, and terms and conditions apply.
At iCare Dental Croydon, private treatment starts with a £25 new patient examination, which includes a diagnosis, a consultation and X-rays if they are required. Existing patients pay £40 for an examination, and emergency appointments start from £40. Most other treatments are quoted from a starting price, confirmed after your dentist has examined you.
We publish our full price list because people searching for private dentist prices in Croydon tell us the same thing: they want to know roughly what they will pay before they walk through the door. A clear starting price lets you plan, compare and ask the right questions at your appointment.
Starting prices are not the same as final prices, though. Two people asking about a crown can need very different work underneath it, which is why every course of treatment at our clinic begins with an examination and a written plan.
The table below lists the dental treatment costs in Croydon that patients ask us about most often. “From” means the starting price; your dentist confirms the exact cost after assessing your teeth.

A new patient dental examination at iCare Dental Croydon costs £25. That fee covers a full check of your teeth and gums, a diagnosis, a consultation with your dentist and any X-rays
needed to complete the assessment. Existing patients pay £40, and children’s examinations are £30.
The examination is the most useful appointment you can book if you are comparing costs, because it turns a starting price into a personal one. Your dentist explains what they have found, which treatments are needed now, which can wait, and what each option would cost.
For families, children under five are seen free of charge when a parent is registered with us. A 15% discount on examinations is also available for families of four or more where a parent or carer is registered and attends regularly. You can read more about what happens at a routine dental check-up before your visit.
A single Straumann dental implant costs £1,250 at iCare Dental Croydon, and the initial implant consultation is free. Some patients also need bone grafting (£500) or a sinus lift (from £300) before an implant can be placed. The crown that sits on top of the implant is priced separately, from £800 for a zirconia crown.
Dental implants cost more upfront than most other replacements for missing teeth because they involve surgical placement, healing time and a custom-made crown. That is why we always explain the complete cost, not just the implant fixture, before any treatment begins. Whether you need extra procedures depends on the bone and gum in the area, which your dentist checks during the free consultation, using a 3D CBCT scan (£120) where needed. Find out more about the process on our dental implants in Croydon page.
Professional home teeth whitening costs £265 at iCare Dental Croydon. The price includes custom-made whitening trays shaped to your teeth, and whitening gel refills are available from £25 if you want to top up your results later.
Custom trays help the whitening gel stay in contact with your teeth and away from your gums, which is one reason dentist-supervised whitening differs from generic over-the-counter kits. Your dentist checks that your teeth and gums are healthy enough before you start.
Whitening only works on natural teeth, so existing crowns, veneers or white fillings will not change colour. If you have visible restorations at the front of your mouth, ask about this at your examination. Our teeth whitening in Croydon page explains the treatment in more detail.
The final price of private dental treatment depends on what your dentist finds during your examination. The main factors are the complexity of the work, how many teeth are involved, the materials used, and whether extra procedures, such as X-rays, scans or bone grafting, are needed first.
Here are the factors that most often move a quote above or below its starting price:
Because of this, we give every patient a written treatment plan before work begins, so you know the cost in advance.
