Am i entitled to free dental treatment?

my partner was made redundent, i work full time , he is on jsa, £59 a week, i am not entitled to full benifit so i have to pay most of the rent and council tax, i have other debts as well, i.e over paid council tax, housing benifit and working tax credit, £ 3000, from the year 2003/4 which i have to get loans to pay off the debt,

Am i entitled to free dental treatment?
Unfortunately, as you work full time you are not entitled to free dental treatment....harsh I know as money is tight. If you speak to citizens advice or NHS Direct's health information service they should be able to give you information as to whether you may be able to get help with health charges using the HC2 form...worth asking.


Good luck

Reply:i dont think you are entitled to free denist, as you are working full time although ur husband would be able to get some sort of cheaper fees from the dentist.
Reply:Nobody (except if your pregnant) gets free.I'm in pain for ages as I've spent £1000 on one tooth last year and can't afford for the rest(I had to borrow that),I'm on a low wage.
Reply:As far as I know if you OR your partner are receiving JSA you should be entitled to free NHS dental treatment, failing that for people on a low income the NHS will sometimes agree to pay part of the cost, you would have to fill in a HC2 form which you can get at your surgery or chemist and await a reply from the board.
Reply:Because you are working full time then you are not entitled to free dental care I'm afraid, you have to be on income support of something similar to be entitled sorry :(
