    Hi @ElvisFan - & welcome to the community. Do you know if your ESA is income related?

    I believe you, or your partner if applicable, need to be considered as on a low income benefit. From the link above:

    'Low income benefits

    You're entitled to free NHS dental treatment if you or your spouse (including civil partner) receive:

    • Income Support
    • Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
    • Income-based Jobseeker's Allowance
    • Pension Credit Guarantee Credit
    • Universal Credit (in certain circumstances)'

    Hello @ElvisFan and welcome to our online community, how are you doing? Psst - the wonder of you is a personal favourite song  <3

    I can see chiarieds has helped with your question regarding free dentistry on ESA, does that clarify your eligibility?

    Also, please note that I've moved your thread to our Employment and Support Allowance category and amended the title to include your question, which will help others.

    Take care and have a fab Thursday afternoon.

    It depends what type of ESA you are receiving.
