Please note that some dental treatments and services on offer may differ from clinic to clinic. Please call your local Genix Healthcare dental clinic to find out which treatments and services are available.

You are eligible for free NHS dental treatment if you are:

Under 19 or in full-time education
Pregnant, or have had a baby in the 12 months before treatment starts
An NHS inpatient and the treatment is carried out by the hospital dentist
An NHS Hospital Dental Service outpatient (there may be a charge for dentures and bridges)

You are entitled to financial help for your treatment if you or your partner receive:

Income Support
Income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance
Guarantee Pension Credit

Or, if you are:

Entitled to, or named on, a valid NHS tax credit exemption certificate
Named on a valid HC2 certificate

Partial help:

If you hold a valid HC3 certificate, you might get some help towards the cost of your NHS dental treatment. The certificate tells you how much you will have to pay. To apply for an HC2 or HC3 certificate, complete form HC1, available from any Jobcentre Plus or most NHS hospitals. Your doctor, dentist or optician may have one too. If you are unable to obtain a form you can get one by calling 0845 610 1110 or visiting www.ppa.org.uk. My local Genix Healthcare Dental Clinic does not provide NHS, what is my alternative? Where NHS dentistry is not available at a Genix Healthcare clinic, either because the dentist is unable to accept new NHS patients or through the absence of an NHS contract, patients can benefit from our affordable monthly Genix Smile Dental Plans.
