Is its true that white fillings are provided by NHS?
Q. Hi. I read in ‘Guide to NHS dental Services’ that white fillings are provided by NHS(doesn’t specify front or back). I called a few practices to ask this and I was told that white fillings are available only for the front teeth. But my children had white fillings at the back and didn’t pay anything. So which is the truth?
A.
I would recommend that you contact the BDA as I have not been involved with NHS dentistry for many years
