Dental care?

[Vrinda]

Hi, me again, I am new in UK, and just registered for NHS

I was told by midwife that I can get dental care in NHS, and now I am wondering what form I need to fill?

I am not yet registered to any dentist. But is not all NHS dental care free anyway? I am confused.

not all nhs dental care is free, its usually just cheaper than private dental care. once you have registered with your midwife to receive free prescriptions and dental care, then you'd need to register with an nhs dentist (by contacting one directly) to access free dental care. hope that helps. xx

They will give you the form at the dentist, just register with nhs dentist. Usually you pay for check ups and treatment unless your low income, under 18 or pregnant
