I m on benefits due to epilepsy can I hv free dental treatment?

Q. I would like some advice on dental treatment which I maybe entitled to . Please could you tell me if and when I have fillings and a crown put in can I have it done in white because I am on benefit , I don’t like gold tooth even though it is at the back and because I am young. I suffer from epilepsy and am on benifits, does that mean i get free dental treatment?

A. NHS direct can give details specific to your benefits. generally it is for th dentist to provide treatment that works , the cosmetic appearance is not a factor. Rob
