Havering is London’s easternmost borough, covering the suburban towns of Romford, Hornchurch, Upminster, and Harold Wood. With a population of over 260,000, the borough has a settled, residential character and a good network of dental practices that have often served the local community for many years.
Havering’s outer London location means private dental prices are among the lowest in London, and NHS availability is generally better than in most other boroughs. For residents looking for reliable, good value dental care, the borough is well served.
