A course of dental work is essential treatment that needs doing at that particular time. If it is a lot of work, the dentist may have to get the ok before starting. He or she obtains the consent by taking xrays, impressions and reports which are sent for approval.

Hopefully it would come under the course of treatment.
You pay 80% of the treatment up to �378. Not much of a discount, is it?
The real saving is if your course of treatment goes above �700. You still only pay �378. And �1000 is easily totted up with dental work.
Take the opportunity to bring up any niggles you have with your teeth and gums. The dentist will either say yes or no - but it's worth a try!
We all pay enough NI. You have to get some benefit out of it.
