Hi @keith0161
Welcome to the community, how are you?
Firstly regarding the free proscriptions, there are quite a lot of eligibility criteria that are listed for those, so I would advise reading this NHS page to see if any of them match your circumstances.
Secondly, I found this information on the NHS website about dental care:
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)
0 -
If you're claiming either New style ESA or Contributions based these do not entitle you to them.
