I have rotting teeth and am scared of dentists and on working tax credits I wish to smile again

Q. I’m 37 Years of Age. I’m on the Brink of Depression. My teeth have rotted, there are half bits her and there, and where they have rotted at the front I look like a Vampire. I am so afraid of Dentists, and worried they will refuse treatment due to the extent of the damage. I embarrassed not just for myself, but for my Children. I don’t go out, and if i speak I will often talk with my hand in front of my face. I.m a Single Parent, on Working Tax Credits, but Payment is a big issue. I don’t have a Bank Account, si unabe to pay Direct Debits. Please help me, as i wish to Smile again. 🙁

A. I’m not great on details of NHS exemtion but I think that the working tax credit means automatic free treatment. If not the form AG1 is avaialable from big post offices and some NHS dental Practices. this provides free or reduced charges if you are on low income.
It might be a case of a simple things first, remove the worst teeth, replace with dentures then try to salvage the rest.
good Luck
Rob
