You get free dental treatment (in Scotland, if at an NHS practice) if you:-

  • Are under 26 years old
  • Are aged 19 and in full-time education
  • Are pregnant, or are a nursing mother

Unless you are in one of the groups entitled to free NHS dental treatment or help with the cost you will require to pay 80% of the cost of your NHS dental treatment up to a maximum of £384 per course of treatment.

Please note that NHS fee structure is complex and varies considerably from patient to patient depending of the treatment required.
