His wisdom teeth are coming in and his teeth are starting to rot and cannot afford private dentistry

Q. I have a friend who’s teeth are in not good shape. His wisdom teeth are coming in and his teeth are starting to rot. He brushes his teeth prob 2 to 3 times a day and uses mouthwash. The prob is he’s only 19 and doesnt have enough money to go to a denist. He has many other bills to pay for himself and can not afford what he really needs. What can he do?

A.

There is an NHS form AG1 you can get at large post offices and some NHS dentists. It checks your income, if you fall into a low income bracket you either get it free or reduced cost.  There are only two fees NHS if you pay full price £44.60 for any number of fillings inc root fillings & cleaning  or £198 for any number of crowns , dentures fillings etc.
