Finance and payment plans

Questions to ask before booking
- Does the quote include an examination, both arches, trays, gel and review appointments?
- Who will assess and supervise my whitening, and what support is available for sensitivity?
- Can you confirm current fees, access needs, appointment times and whether whitening qualifies for finance?
For suitability, limitations and side effects, see our Bournemouth whitening guidance and speak to a qualified dental professional.
