Dental Fines from a Simple Checkbox | Sheffield News

Over 200,000 people got hit with fines last year for wrongly claiming free dental care — just because they ticked a box they weren’t sure about. The NHS sends penalty notices if eligibility can’t be verified, and ignoring them for 28 days can cost you up to $100 or more — sometimes even five times the treatment fee. Free care is only for specific groups: under 18, pregnant, on certain benefits, or low-income. Use the NHS eligibility checker before you tick anything — it’s the easiest way to avoid a costly mistake. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
