Go to the NHS website, there's a page that allows to to locate NHS dentists, doctors, opticians etc etc - you type in your postcode and it gives you a list of dental practices nearest to you and also information about what categories of patients they are currently registering. Good luck!

You wanna live in Ireland mate. Paid €4,000 in the last 2.5 years  and not finished yet. €60 to have a check up. €600 for a canal, €80 for a straight filling, €700 for a crown, and thousands for braces. It is crazy here. The government puts 21%VAT on dentistry because having teeth apparently is a luxury here. Plus all our dentists drive Mercs and Beamers\nRant over\nBTW my dentist works very hard

call your dentist! They do care more about you than the money. Ask them if you can pay them so much a week.

Contact your local or state dental association and and see if there are any dentists who provide free or reduced cost care for low-income, disabled or senior patients.\n\nCall your local health department and ask about health centers that provide dental care for free or on a sliding scale.\n\nYour local United Way may also be aware of such a clinic.  In some areas, you can reach them now by dialing 2-1-1 for "non-emergency information."\n\nGo to a dental school, if there is one near you, for reduced costs.\n\nIf you are a senior citizen, call your local Area Agency on Aging or Office on Aging.  If you can not find a listing in your local phone book on the "County Government" pages (usually marked with blue borders), call toll-free 1-800-677-1116 to find how to contact the Area Agency on Aging serving you.\n\nCheck http://www.toothwoman.net to see if low-cost or free dental services are available near you.\n\nCheck http://bphc.hrsa.gov and choose "Find a Health Center" to see if there is a low-cost clinic near you.\n\nCheck http://www.nfdh.org/DDS.html to see if your state has a "Donated Dental Services" program.  D.D.S. is designed to locate dentists who will give free care to patients who are financially compromised due to medical problems.  This is a process that will take a couple of months to get your information and then arrange for someone to see you.  Not all states have D.D.S. programs.\n\nIf worse comes to worse, check out http://www.prosper.com and see if you can find a funding source.

As a solicitor who specialises in dental negligence claims on a daily basis in the UK, my own opinion is that it would be difficult to sue your dentist if he/she made an immediate referral to an oral surgeon.  This would be the accepted practice.  \n\nIt could be argued that the dentist should have taken an x-ray and then made an assessment before starting to extract, and this may be negligence if this was not done.  \n\nAlthough yours is a straighforward claim, this one would be quite tricky to prove any negligence.

don't get dentures.....get veneers....they drill down your teeth and then replace them with new and straight white teeth

If you qualify you can sign up for Welfare.  This will allow them to pay for your teeth and other health problems that may happen in the future.  It maybe worth a try.

Hello! I'm an NHS dentist.\nOn a typical day  (8.30 to 6) I will treat/ see around 25 patients, sometimes more. Some will just be coming in for check up and a clean (15mins for adults, 5ish for a young child), others for fillings (about 25- 30mins for an appointment, although you can get several done in that time). I will probably see a couple of patients who need dentures made (10-15mins per apppointment) and maybe some more complicated procedures such as root canal (endodntics, 45mins per appointment) or crown/ bridge work (also 45mins for the drilling, maybe 15 to fit the work).\n\nMost patients are lovely, but the few problems we get concern either unrealistic expectations of the patients, or money. I guess we don't ever really see people at their best as most are worried about real or imagined pain/expense, but most of the time as long as the dentist explains, doesn't hurt and the fillings stay in, people are happy!\n\nHope this helps.
