Biological Foundations Plus
Fees
Biological Foundations is for patients who want dentistry that fits within a broader view of health.
Looking for a more thoughtful, preventative approach
Seeking clarity after years of recurring dental problems
Interested in how oral health connects with overall wellbeing
Wanting time, explanation, and a clear plan rather than rushed decisions
Every new patient at N1 Dental begins here.
The objective
The aim of Biological Foundations is to preserve what is healthy, identify areas that may need attention, and plan care with long-term wellbeing in mind.
Rather than focusing on isolated problems, we look at your oral health in context. This includes your medical history, lifestyle, priorities, and any concerns you may have.
Every assessment integrates clinical evaluation with advanced diagnostic tools to build a complete picture of your oral health.
Comprehensive assessment of teeth, gums, bite, and jaw joints
Review of medical and dental history
Time to understand your goals, concerns, and priorities
Dedicated follow-up to review findings and discuss next steps

Digital scanning

Clinical photography

Diagnostic imaging
Think you may need a more in-depth level of assessment?
Biological Foundations Plus includes everything in the core consultation, plus additional investigations and extended planning time for complex or long-standing concerns.
Nutritional status testing
Saliva microbiome analysis (charged separately)
CBCT imaging – 3D diagnostic X-rays (charged separately)
Extended planning time for surgical or advanced treatment
Biological Foundations Plus is not required for every patient.
It is only recommended when clinically appropriate, and our team will explain this clearly when you enquire.


Where appropriate, a dedicated follow-up video consultation is included as part of your Biological Foundations appointment.
This allows us to review findings together, discuss options in more detail, and agree next steps at a pace that feels right for you.
Our friendly team will be happy to help you
We'll arrange a time and date to suit
