Dental cost

[Elab]

Hi all,

Hope you all feeling ok and drinking loads of water in this heat 🤪.

Does anyone know if we (MPN people) are getting NHS dental care for free.

I have dentist app tom and was wondering if we don’t have to pay because of our treatment etc.

Iam jak + Et and currently on pegasys

Many thanks for your help

Hi. I always pay for dental treatment . I'm not aware of it being free.

Hi Ela

No, unfortunately we have to pay. I tried to use the NHS exemption card I have for prescriptions but that’s not acceptable.

Hi Ela, I have no idea but I would be interested to find out too, having paid privately recently for 2 root canal treatments which cost me a small fortune, I think I need another one too.

I'm staying inside when it's too hot with my fan and a good book!

hi there, I work in the profession and I am sorry to say, we pay! But make sure you trust the dentist. If not sure, get a second opinion.
