gum disease and dental questions

[kennethj]

I have gum disease and have had several teeth taken out over the past couple of months, I gave up smoking and found another set of problems my teeth. I have constant sensativity and absesses and find myself on antibiotics all the time. Although I am registered with an NHS dentist and I have been quoted massive amounts for dentures which in this current climate I find unaffordable, My question is what is covered on the NHS with regard to dentures and where can I go if not?

You should pay no more than �198 for all your treatment, including dentures, from an NHS dentist.
