I only ask as I saw my dentist since gettin pg today for the first time. Since I've been having lots of trouble with sensitive teeth (struggle to even drink water and have had to alter how I swallow to limit pain) she suggested a hygienist appointment. When I went out to the receptionist to show my exemption card for the check up I asked if hygienist was free for me and told it was private so would cost £42 (NHS dentist btw).
Has anyone had hygienist appointments free on NHS exemption card? I'm not bothering if I have to pay (I'm a cheap skate!). Just thought I'd check if it is something I should be entitled to or not.
