what i need to know is when my prescriptions and dental care are free
UC is paid a month in arrears so you should be covered now.
However you won't have any proof until your first statement, which a chemist or dentist might ask for.
You can pay, request a receipt (FP57 for prescription) then claim back afterwards if necessary.

For a prescription just take the receipt and FP57 into any pharmacy. If the refund form doesn't have a UC box, tick JSA.
iI have a payment statement in my jornal I need to know what box to tick on the prescriptio
Free prescriptions aren't automatic with UC, check you meet the criteria here:

Take home pay refers to money earned through working.
You tick box U Universal Credit, if there is no box U then you tick box K JSA.
The value must be greater than or equal to 1.
