of our dental team will make contact with your patient to arrange a convenient appointment for an initial consultation.\u00a0 This allows us to fully assess the needs of each patient and to direct their treatment and care in the best possible way.\u00a0 Since every patient is different, it is only possible to accurately set the cost of individual treatment plans following a thorough assessment.<\/p>\n<p>We will then provide the patient with a written treatment plan and, before commencing treatment, we will usually see the patient for a follow-up consultation to check that the treatment plan meets with the patient\u2019s wishes.<\/p>\n<p>For restorative cases, treatment planning will take into consideration the prognosis of each individual tooth.\u00a0 It is usually necessary to have articulated study models made so that a detailed assessment and analysis can be made of a patient\u2019s occlusion prior to finalising the definitive treatment plan.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the treatment process, we will then return the patient back to you for your continuing care and provide you with a written report of any treatment that has been carried out.<\/p>\n<p><b>To help
