Getting orthodontic treatment from Edlaston

To make the first step cheaper or shorter: Orthodontics Derby (6.8 miles) mentions a free consultation; Dr Serena Hoyte (17 miles) mentions remote consultations; and 22 of the practices around Edlaston list clear aligners, the nearest 6.8 miles away.

For NHS treatment, which is free for eligible under-18s and reached by dentist referral rather than by contacting a practice: NHS dental services around Edlaston are commissioned by NHS Derby and Derbyshire Integrated Care Board; the nearest practice listing NHS orthodontics is NO.1 THE ORTHODONTIC SPECIALIST in Derby, 9.3 miles away; and complex cases are referred to hospital orthodontic departments such as Charles Clifford Dental Hospital in Sheffield, about 29 miles away.

Allowing for roads about 30% longer than the straight line and an average of 35 mph, the drive from Edlaston to Orthodontics Derby is roughly 15 minutes each way. 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 180 to 350 miles and 5 to 10 hours on the road. At the 45p a mile HMRC uses for business driving, that is roughly £80 to £160 in running costs. Clear aligners usually need fewer visits, perhaps 6 to 10 (about 110 to 180 miles), so ask any practice how many a plan for your case would involve before you commit to the journey. About 6.6% of households in the surrounding census area have no car, for whom the journey means public transport or a lift.
