Get healthcare in the UK

You normally have to pay for dental care in the UK. In the following cases, it will be free.

• If you are under the age of 18
• If you are pregnant or have had a baby in the last 12 months. You will need a certificate to show in this case.
• Some treatments are free, such as removing stitches or repairing dentures.

You need to register at a dentist's surgery. Find your nearest dentist surgery.

If you require urgent dental care either:

• Call your dentist 
• Call NHS 111
• If it is an emergency go to your nearest hospital with an Accident & Emergency (A&E) department
