I'm Currently Feeling: | can anyone help I've looked everywhere and get no help whatsoever,
My oh is currently working and we get working tax credits, now what i need to know is if i go to the dentist can i get help with costs?
I don't work as I'm waiting to go back to college and oh has more money going out than he has coming in
I've got a tooth that needs pulling and the sooner its done the better lol
if I have to pay then its no bother really
thanks in advance |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Any dental schools around??/ They may take payments or even free if for school.
worth a try
or call around to other dentists and see what payment plan they have. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | try going to your local dental hospital - its usually free for emergency stuff - but you get a student doing it |

I'm Currently Feeling: | As you are going back to college i should imagine you would be able to get some help .
My mum is on working tax credits , And she gets reduced rate on things like prescriptions and Dental work .
If you do have to pay hun , Ring round your local emergency dentists , They are about 60% cheaper than a normal dentist , I went to have tooth out at emergency dentist was £16 i was very impressed.
Allso if you are real skint as a quick semi way to ease i recomend Oragel , It comes from asdas about £2 and numbs the area compleatley (Its great) . |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I have been in agony with my teeth and did not have a NHS dentist, so went and saw an emergency one, he could have removed the tooth for me free of charge but I said no, I couldnt handle that much pain!
You can get a small concession if you are on beneifits but you will need proof of this |
