Kingston upon Thames is a prosperous South West London borough centred around the busy riverside town of Kingston, with the quieter residential areas of Surbiton, New Malden, Chessington, and Tolworth surrounding it. With a population of around 180,000, it is one of London’s smaller boroughs, but its thriving town centre and strong local economy support a good range of dental practices.

Kingston town centre is a major retail and commercial hub, drawing people from across South West London and Surrey. This means its dental practices serve both local residents and workers from the wider area. The borough has a comfortable, suburban character and many of its practices are long-established, family-oriented providers.

Dental Care in Kingston

Kingston town centre has the strongest concentration of dental practices in the borough, with options around the marketplace, along Richmond Road, and in the surrounding streets. Surbiton has a well-regarded selection of practices along Victoria Road and the high street, popular with the area’s commuter population.

New Malden has a distinctive character as home to one of the largest Korean communities in Europe, and several practices in the area serve this community. Tolworth and Chessington have a smaller selection of local practices.

NHS availability in Kingston is mixed. The borough’s relative affluence means some practices have moved to private-only, though NHS options remain available. Check our NHS dentist hub for the latest availability.

What dental treatment actually costs in Kingston upon Thames

These are median prices taken from the published fee pages of practices in the borough, not estimates. The last column shows how many published prices each median draws on, so you can see how much weight to give it.

TreatmentKingston upon ThamesSouth London medianPrices used
Hygienist appointment£85£8569
Teeth whitening£390£39550
Root canal£550£55041
Veneers (per tooth)£688£58056

It runs above the regional median on Invisalign, dentures and veneers.

Medians hide a lot. In Kingston upon Thames, published prices for Invisalign run from £1,200 to £5,000. That spread usually reflects how complex the case is and who is doing the work, so ring two or three practices and ask what the quote covers before committing to anything expensive.

We are not publishing a median implant price. Single implants and full-arch cases such as All-on-4 sit in the same set of published prices, so the middle of that range would mislead. See dental implants in Kingston upon Thames for individual practice prices.

NHS dentists in Kingston upon Thames
