Why Transparency Matters: Fixed Prices vs. "From" Prices in Dental Care

When it comes to dental care, cost is often a significant consideration for patients. Unfortunately, many dental practices advertise their prices with terms like “from,” leaving patients guessing about the final cost of treatment. This approach can be confusing and frustrating, especially for those trying to make informed decisions and compare options. At Hampton Dental Care, we do things differently—we believe in transparent, fixed pricing that gives you clarity and confidence from the start. Here’s why.


The Problem with "From" Prices


The phrase “from £X” is often used to indicate the starting price of a treatment. However, these prices rarely reflect what most patients will actually pay. Why? Because dental procedures can vary greatly in complexity and materials required. For example, a filling priced “from £100” might only apply to the smallest and simplest cases, while more complex treatments could cost significantly more.


This pricing model can create confusion and stress for patients:


  • Hidden Costs: Patients might assume a lower cost and then be surprised when additional fees or upgrades are added.

  • Difficulty Comparing Practices: It’s nearly impossible to compare prices between practices when one lists "from" prices and another provides comprehensive quotes.

  • Erosion of Trust: Patients may feel misled or frustrated, which can negatively impact their trust in the dental provider.


Why Fixed Prices Are Better for Patients


At Hampton Dental Care, we know how important it is to feel confident about your dental care—not just the treatment but also the cost. That’s why we’ve chosen to offer transparent, fixed prices.


Here’s why fixed pricing makes a difference:


  1. Clarity: You know exactly what to expect when you book your treatment.

  2. Fairness: No surprise add-ons or unexpected charges; our prices reflect the total cost of your care.

  3. Easy Comparison: Fixed prices make it easier for patients to shop around and understand what different practices offer.

  4. Builds Trust: Transparency fosters trust and helps us build long-lasting relationships with our patients.
