Keeping teeth and gums healthy

Throughout our lives, we need to make sure that we all look after our oral health. This means keeping a healthy mouth, teeth and gums.

The best way to protect you and your family’s teeth is to brush them at least twice a day and go for regular check-ups at the dentist.

Help towards dental costs

You do not have to pay for NHS dental services if you're:

  • under 18, or 19 and in full-time education
  • pregnant or have had a baby in the last 12 months
  • being treated in an NHS hospital and your treatment is carried out by the hospital dentist (but you may have to pay for any dentures or bridges)
  • receiving low-income benefits, or you're under 20 and a dependant of someone receiving low-income benefits

The NHS Low Income Scheme (LIS) may provide help with some of the cost of your dental care if you have a low income but do not qualify for free dental care.
