Get in touch with your local health authority and they will supply you access to a local NHS dentist. Your GP should have the number or a leaflet with the details and the number!

If you follow this link @Robert ball , you type your town in and it brings up a list of dentists with a table showing if they are taking fee paying adults, non-fee paying adults or children. It starts with the ones closest and gets further away. I found one a half hour drive away, but it is worth it for the savings.

Can I say I've been in the same boat by not being able to afford dental treatment until someone told me that being on benefits I should get help. Well after digging about a bit I found out I was on the wrong benefit and had been for years. Just had it corrected so now my dental bill will be a lot lower, same as opticians and my prescriptions, worth getting it checked out.

If you are on income support or equivalent your dentistry is free, so always worth checking your benefit type and entitlement. If you are a dependant or low income there is a exemption certificate you can apply for from the government, therefore again your dentistry is free!

@robjmckinney that's what I've just sorted out because I was in the wrong group and it's going to be a big help to me now.

Since having my stroke I have for the pastb3 and a bit years had to use a private dentist as in Swindon there are no NHS dentist who are registered surgeons and so far have spent nearly £2000 on dental treatments and being a pensioner this is a lot of money surely there must be some help out there for this situation
