Complimentary Consultations

Dreaming about your perfect smile but you don’t know where to begin? Why Not Schedule a Complimentary Consultation with One of Our Friendly Treatment Coordinators.

At Belmore Dental, we are delighted to be able to offer a free consultation with one of our treatment coordinator team, Laura & Shauna. Our treatment coordinators are both fully qualified dental nurses, with a wealth of experience in all areas of dentistry, and pride themselves on providing the highest level of customer care from the beginning of your treatment journey, right through to the end.

The role of a treatment coordinator in our practice is to first of all, act as an initial guide for patients who are considering treatment, but maybe have no idea where to begin. As a practice who are experienced in dealing with nervous patients who may not have attended a dentist in years, we understand that sometimes the thought of jumping straight in and visiting the dentist can be too much. We believe an initial consultation with one of our treatment coordinators can be a wonderful way to ease these patients in and provide a ‘stepping stone’ for them in feeling comfortable enough to attend an examination with the dentist. This informal appointment will allow you to visit the building, meet some of our team and feel comfortable in your surroundings.

Your treatment coordinator will be there for you at every stage of your smile journey, they are always on hand to answer any questions you may have, talk you through details of your appointments, arrange a payment schedule for you, help you understand or finance options, and anything else you may need!

What To Expect During Your Consultation

• Your Treatment coordinator will ask a series of questions in order to find out what your current concerns are, what you would like to achieve by the end of your treatment and what your ultimate smile goals are.
• After finding out a bit more about why you have decided to visit Belmore Dental, your treatment coordinator will recommend possible options that may be suitable for you based on what you have discussed. As the treatment coordinator is not a dentist, she is not able to carry out any clinical examination of your mouth and therefore her recommendations would be based off discussion only, the dentist would confirm your personalised treatment plan after your initial dental consultation, should you decide to arrange one.
• Once your treatment coordinator has discussed the possible options that may be recommended for you, she will also advise on an approximate pricing guide and explain any finance options that are available.
• You will have an opportunity to ask any questions you may have and she will do her best to answer all of these there and then. Should there be anything that would need to be confirmed by a dentist, she will get back in touch with you once she has obtained the required information.
• If you would like, your treatment coordinator will introduce you to any available team members during your visit and bring you on a tour of the practice where possible, to ensure you feel comfortable in your surroundings.
• Where applicable, your treatment coordinator may also take a series of clinical photographs and a 3D digital intra-oral scan of the inside of your mouth. Both of these forms of media can allow us to discuss your smile concerns in more detail. She may also show you previous before and after photo examples of treatments that you discuss.
• Once your consultation is complete, if you would like to schedule a full consultation with one of our dentists, your treatment coordinator will also be able to arrange this for you.

Flexible Finance Options Are Available to Make Your Smile Journey Even Easier

We understand that many people don’t enjoy discussing money, it can sometimes make us feel awkward or even embarrassed. But for most of us, cost is a big factor when it comes to decision making.

During your free consultation, your treatment coordinator will be able to give you an idea of possible costs and finance options. If you decide to attend for a full consultation with one of our dentists, we will arrange for you to also visit the treatment coordinator again directly after this so she can once again talk you through the fees and give you an idea of what a finance plan may look like for you. If you decide you would like to apply for finance, she will also be able to help you start the application process.
