RA and dentist

No. But it won't have anything at all to do with the EU. It's not clear what she meant by 'the rules' - she might mean the NICE (National Institute for Clinical Excellence) guidelines, which set out medical good practice in the UK. Or she might just mean what dentists are commissioned to do by your local CCG - their contract will specify certain things they do and get paid for, and other things they don't.

Hope you can get it sorted!

I've looked at the NHS Evidence website (https://www.evidence.nhs.uk/Search?q=dental+extraction+warfarin ).

It looks like it's the Warfarin that is the problem, because of the risk of extra bleeding. These are the latest guidelines I can find there (2007), but guidance is usually reviewed every 4 years or so, so it is likely they have been revised in 2011 and 2015:

It says people can generally have dental extractions at their dentist, except -

"Patients on oral anticoagulants with co-existing medical problems e.g. liver disease, renal disease, thrombocytopenia or who are taking anti-platelet drugs. Such patients may have an increased risk of bleeding".

Not sure whether that helps...
