Why can’t have my dental veneers on the NHS like I did 11 years ago?

Friday, May 28th, 2010
Q.
Hello, 11 years I had 6 veneers fitted and half of the cost was paid by the National Health. My dentist at the time has since retired and his replacement says I have to pay full price. Is this reasonable, as I can’t afford to pay the full price and I will be left with awful looking teeth. Surely if I was granted National Health before, why not now? Can you tell me if there is anything I can do or who to contact for help,
