Getting orthodontic treatment from Batchcott

Batchcott is a long way from a practice: the nearest we list is Tupsley Dental Practice and Implant Centre in Hereford, 19.2 miles away.

A course of fixed braces typically means 10 to 20 visits (a consultation, the fitting, 7 to 17 adjustments and the removal), which from here comes to about 500 to 1,000 miles and 15 to 30 hours on the road. At the 45p a mile HMRC uses for business driving, that is roughly £225 to £450 in running costs.
