You have to be on benefits for free treatment,or you pay NHS charges which is in 3 bands.
1 check up,maybe x ray,roughly£35
2 treatment,fillings/clean£70 ish.
3 crown £200+
dentist I used to use,just look into my mouth for Band 1.

Checked, to get free dental treatment you have to get pension credit.
Here is some information:

They do cost an arm and a leg. Especially if you're using one of the better reputable dentists.

hears one more thing that went wrong with the dentists last year once again took wife to the dentist for her six month check up no probs went to reception to pay the bill it come to £22 some odd pence so I paid by card got a print out of the bill and it said paid in full and off we went three moths later I had a bill come from the n.h,s for £120 pound for dental treat meant they said I had made a fraudulent claim for dental treatment bill had contact numbers to phone and so I did they would not except a copy of the bill payment and if I did not pay they would take me to court so I went to the dentist told them yes its a mistake on our part we will put it right we will send them a copy of pay meant and that they did end of story not on your life a few weeks later I got a bill for £22 pound so it was a trip to the dentist with the demand for payment a showed them the bill ho dear leave it with us we will sort it out like you did last time I gave them a 7 days to sort it yes they did
