Can I get an emergency dental appointment if I am not registered?

Emergency appointments are held for registered patients at the start of the day, then made available to non-registered patients later in the morning. An emergency appointment may include a diagnosis, a prescription if needed, temporary treatment, and advice on longer-term options.

Can I refer myself for root canal treatment or a second opinion?

Yes. Dr Nikos Louskos takes self-referrals from patients seeking root canal treatment or a second opinion, and the practice also accepts external referrals for more complex endodontic cases.

Do you treat children?

Yes, the practice treats children of registered patients. The source does not state a minimum age.

Will I get a treatment plan before starting dental treatment?

Yes. The practice says it explains recommended treatment, likely timescales and costs in advance so you can decide before going ahead.
