Islington has 45 dental practices covering Angel, Upper Street, Highbury, Holloway, Finsbury Park, Archway and Clerkenwell. It is one of inner London’s most densely populated boroughs, and it has the thinnest NHS provision in North London: only 13 of the 45 practices hold an NHS contract, against 38 in Barnet and 35 in Haringey.
What dental treatment actually costs in Islington
Median prices from the published fee pages of Islington practices. The count shows how many published prices each median draws on.
| Treatment | Islington median | North London median | Prices used |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hygienist appointment | £89 | £90 | 45 |
| Teeth whitening | £395 | £395 | 65 |
| Root canal | £620 | £550 | 39 |
| Veneers (per tooth) | £495 | £550 | 65 |
| Dentures | £750 | £850 | 46 |
| Invisalign | £3,100 | £3,495 | 59 |
Islington is dearer than the North London median for root canals, by £70, and cheaper for veneers, dentures and Invisalign. The Invisalign figure is £395 below the regional median, which is worth knowing given that Barnet, Enfield and Haringey all sit at £3,500.
The ranges are wide. Islington whitening runs from £99 to £850 and root canals from £185 to £1,200, which usually reflects whether a specialist endodontist is doing the work and which tooth is involved. Ask what is included before you agree to anything.

How Islington practices are rated
43 of the 45 practices have Google ratings, averaging 4.51 out of 5, a little below the North London average of 4.49 for the region as a whole and well below Barnet at 4.63.
Four Islington practices hold a 5.0 average on more than 90 reviews. Ratings come from Google, not from us, and the review count matters as much as the score. Each practice page shows both.
Opening hours and getting seen
38 of the 45 practices open on a Saturday, and all 45 have a working website, so fees and availability are usually checkable without a phone call.
Islington’s transport makes it one of the easier boroughs to fit an appointment around work. Angel, Highbury and Islington, and Finsbury Park all sit on the Northern, Victoria or Piccadilly lines, and the practices clustered along Upper Street are within a few minutes’ walk of Angel station.
