Every appointment the book holds, with what it costs
Every appointment the book holds, with what it costs
Six kinds of visit, each with what it includes, who it suits and how long the chair is yours. The assistant books from this list rather than inventing an appointment type.
| Code | What it is | What it covers | Plan | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|---|---|
RD-EXAM | Check-up and clean | Thirty minutes with a hygienist and ten with a dentist: scale, polish, and a look at everything including the bits you cannot see. | All plans; insured or self-paying | Usually inside two weeks; Saturday slots go first |
RD-EMER | Same-day emergency | A held slot kept back every weekday for pain, a lost filling or a broken tooth. Seen, settled and told what it will cost before anything is booked. | Anyone, patient here or not | Same day if you text before 11am |
RD-FILL | Filling | One appointment, white composite as standard, numbed unless you would rather not be. Price quoted from the size before you sit down. | All plans | Within a week of the exam that found it |
RD-HYG | Extended hygiene | A full hour for gums that need the time, with a written plan for what to do at home between visits. | Ridgeway Plan or self-paying | Within three weeks |
RD-WHITE | Home whitening | Impressions, custom trays and enough gel for a fortnight, plus a review to check the shade landed where you wanted. | Self-paying only | Trays ready seven working days after impressions |
RD-KIDS | Children's visit | Twenty minutes made deliberately dull: count the teeth, fluoride varnish, a sticker, nothing surprising. | Free under 18 on a parent's plan | Inside two weeks, after-school slots from 3:30 |
The assistant reads this same table through its list_services tool, so what it tells you and what this page says cannot drift apart.
