👤 Sean:

Hi, I’ve just moved to the area and I’m looking to register with a dentist

🤖 Lewis:

That’s no problem at all, welcome to the area. We’d be happy to get you registered.

For adult patients, we offer private registration, and many of our patients join our practice plan which is £17 per month and includes check-ups, hygienist visits, and discounts on treatment.

👤 Sean:

Okay that sounds good. I haven’t been to the dentist in a few years though

🤖 Lewis:

That’s absolutely fine, we see that all the time. The best first step would be to get you booked in for an examination so the dentist can assess everything and talk through any treatment options with you.

👤 Sean:

Yeah I was actually thinking about Invisalign and maybe whitening as well

🤖 Lewis:

That’s very popular at the moment.

We do offer Invisalign consultations, and we currently have a teeth whitening offer at £245, which includes custom trays and whitening gel with results in around two weeks.

The dentist can go through both options with you during your examination.

👤 Sean:

Okay great — how do I get started?

🤖 Lewis:

Perfect, I can get that booked in for you now.

We have availability next Friday at either 10:30am or 5:45pm — which would suit you better?

👤 Sean:

5:45pm please

🤖 Lewis:

Perfect — I’ll book you in for Friday at 5:45pm.

Can I take a few details for the booking?

👤 Sean:

Yeah no problem

🤖 Lewis:

Great — can I take your full name please?

👤 Sean:

Sean Higgins

🤖 Lewis:

Thank you Sean. And your date of birth?

👤 Sean:

12th March 1986

🤖 Lewis:

Perfect, and what’s the best contact number for you?

👤 Sean:

07564411775

🤖 Lewis:

Brilliant, thank you.

That’s you booked in for your examination on Friday at 5:45pm. You’ll receive a wee text reminder closer to the date. If anything changes, just give us a call.

Is there anything else I can help you with today?

👤 Sean:

No that’s everything

🤖 Lewis:

Perfect, we’ll see you next Friday Sean — thanks for calling Newyearfield Dental Centre.
