Does anyone know if we get free dental care? I’ve been told I should but I don’t think we do…I usually pay as I work full time but as I’m off work atm I’ve not had a full wage and one of my teeth have broke and my filling has come out :-(. Before being diagnosed I had a filling out in and he drilled into my tooth as I had a root canal and he drilled my tooth too thin hence it breaking! And the filling is more like a stone! God knows what he put in my mouth!
I thought I would ask you lot as I’m assuming you’ll know more than someone who claims to know everything
Also does anyone know how long we have to wait after treatment?
Hello Carmel I envy your health care system if they do pay. Had root canal treatment towards end of 6 months taxal/carboplatin/avastin treatment. It cost me the equivalent of £1300. Obviously someone thought I was getting too comfortable.
Hi, you get free dental care if you qualify for working tax credit. I have had ESA as i couldn't go back to work for a year as I couldn't go back to work after cancer. I still have to pay but have an NHS dentist, so itd not too bad. I dont qualify as being on a low income as my partner works. My teeth got really bad when I had the treatment for CC and I just couldn't face having 2 teeth pulled out and 3 fillings so managed to get my nice NHS dentist to refer me to a private clinic and had it all done under sedation for about £50. Bargain!
Oh brill thank you! I live on my own and I'm single, plus work full time on a good wage but with me being off its a reduced wage so i cant afford atm but once I'm back at work i can, is it ok for me to inbox you to discuss esa? Sorry if not.
