Answers:
If you need to find an NHS dentist you need to call NHS Direct on 0845 46 47.. They will find you the nearest NHS denist that is taking on new patients.. You will not have to pay at 15 of course - I don't know why someone said that!

Your local hospital will only treat you if it's an emergency (ie the pain is so horrific you haven't eaten or slept in 24hrs) and they won't help you with finding a regular dentist..
