Answers:
dental treatment is free if you under 18 or claim some kind of benifit, , but its so hard for anyone to get a nhs dentist, some people go private, even kids, and have to pay loads
with other health matters , yes doctors / hospital treatment is free , you have to pay for a prescription which is about 7 pounds.. for operations there is a huge waiting list , sometimes 10 years for non serious stuff, so some people do go private and get seen quicker.. we do have some insurence schemes in place but thats optional

appointments in my dentist r usually within 2weeks, less if its urgent..
NHS do pay 4 braces,etc they wont pay for the more exspensive things like veniers, or implants.. but will do crowns and bridges etc..
there would b a lot of horrible mouths running around without the NHS, as ppl would not beable to afford treatment privately as its so expensive..Health Question & Answer
