The Dental Barns is a premium private practice, so our fees reflect the time, technology, materials and level of care built into each appointment rather than a high-volume approach.

A combined dental examination and hygiene visit is currently £225. You can explore our general dentistry approach, Airflow® Hygiene Therapy and our wider dental fees online. Where further treatment is needed, we provide a detailed plan and clear costs before anything is carried out.

Our focus is on doing the right treatment properly: longer appointments, advanced diagnostics, high-quality materials, prevention wherever possible and careful follow-up. We would rather stabilise a problem well and protect the tooth long term than rush into the quickest short-term solution.

There is no single smile makeover price because every case is designed around the individual.

As a guide, some patients begin with Enlighten® Whitening from £795. Composite bonding starts from £395 per tooth, so a six-tooth case would be from around £2,370 before any additional treatment. Genuine e.max® porcelain veneers start from £995 per tooth. Invisalign® treatment starts from £3,995.

More comprehensive transformations often combine several stages. For example, a case involving Invisalign®, whitening and multiple porcelain veneers can move into the £10,000–£15,000+ range depending on the number of teeth and complexity involved.

You can see our wider dental pricing in Lichfield for more guide fees. The important part is that you receive a complete, transparent plan before treatment begins, so you understand the full investment rather than being surprised by additional stages later.

Yes. The Dental Barns offers finance options, including up to 12 months interest-free finance, subject to eligibility.

We provide your full personalised treatment plan and costs first, so you know the total investment before deciding whether a finance option is right for you. You can also review our dental pricing and guide fees online.

Our approach is preventative, minimally invasive and health-first. You can read more about our general dentistry in Lichfield.

Before cosmetic treatment, we want the foundations to be stable: healthy gums, good hygiene, controlled decay and a clear understanding of your bite and long-term risks. A professional Airflow® Hygiene visit is often an important part of creating those healthy foundations. Where appropriate, we also use conservative technologies such as Curodont™ to help manage early enamel lesions rather than automatically moving straight to drilling and filling.

Once the mouth is healthy and stable, we can then move into cosmetic Smile Design with much greater predictability. A beautiful smile should be built on healthy foundations, not used to hide underlying problems.

Absolutely. You do not need to decide between Invisalign®, bonding, whitening or veneers before you come in.

Your Smile Consultation is designed to understand what you would like to improve, assess your smile and explain the different options clearly. Our First Visit guide explains what to expect when you come to The Dental Barns. You can then make an informed decision without being pushed toward a particular treatment.

Smile makeover treatment at The Dental Barns is led by Dr Keely Thorne, Principal Dentist and Co-Founder of the practice.

Her approach focuses on natural, face-driven results and minimally invasive dentistry wherever possible. The same attention to detail runs from your initial planning through treatment and follow-up.

A smile makeover is not one specific treatment.

Depending on your teeth, bite and goals, your plan might include Invisalign®, Enlighten® Whitening, composite bonding, porcelain veneers or restorative dentistry. Some patients need only one treatment, while others benefit from a carefully sequenced combination.

Our Smile Design service brings those options together so we can recommend the most conservative route capable of achieving a predictable result.

Yes. Predictability is an important part of our Smile Design approach.

Depending on the treatment, we use digital scanning, photography and smile design technology to help you understand the proposed result before treatment begins. For porcelain veneer cases, additional trial stages may also be used before the final result is completed.

Absolutely. Your input is central to the Smile Design process.

You can show us smiles you like, discuss tooth shape, brightness, length and character, and tell us what you definitely do not want. We will then guide you on how those ideas are likely to work with your own facial features, lip line, bite and existing teeth.

Some styles that look beautiful on one person can feel unnatural on another, so we will always be honest about what we think will suit you best. The final design is collaborative — your preferences combined with our clinical and aesthetic guidance.

Yes — our signature style is natural.

We aim for smiles that look healthy, balanced and beautifully suited to the person rather than obviously 'done'. That philosophy sits at the heart of our Smile Design approach and treatments such as composite bonding and e.max® porcelain veneers.

We pay close attention to proportion, translucency, texture, tooth shape, lip movement and the relationship between the smile and the face. The goal is not to make everyone look the same. It is to create a result that feels like the best version of your own smile.

Yes. We welcome patients travelling from overseas for Smile Design and cosmetic dentistry.

The Dental Barns is conveniently positioned for Birmingham Airport (BHX) and our Lichfield location is well connected to the UK road network. For international guests, we can offer a concierge-style service to help coordinate arrival, appointment planning and local accommodation where needed.

For larger cases, we also plan the clinical stages carefully around travel so that appointments are grouped as efficiently as possible while still allowing the time and follow-up the treatment requires. Contact us to discuss an international treatment journey.

Very private. For patients who place a particularly high value on discretion, continuity and certainty, we can create a highly personalised package around their visit.

This can include exclusive access arrangements at the practice and within the Blackbrook Barns courtyard, carefully coordinated appointment times and contingency planning using backup equipment wherever possible. Our Blackbrook Barns location is naturally well suited to this because it is away from a busy high street.

It is particularly suited to people with demanding schedules, public-facing roles or limited flexibility who need peace of mind that every part of their visit has been thought through in advance.

These arrangements are bespoke, so please contact The Dental Barns to discuss them privately.

The Dental Barns was designed to feel very different from a conventional dental practice.

You can explore more about The Dental Barns and our philosophy, see what to expect on your first visit, or learn about our Blackbrook Barns setting.

Patients can relax with personalised entertainment during treatment, see their dental information clearly on large 4K displays and have time to understand each decision rather than feeling rushed through an appointment.

Yes. There is free private parking on site at Blackbrook Barns, close to the practice entrance.
