dental treatment

hi
can anyone tell me if I have to pay for dental treatment if I,m on esa support group and daily living pip please.I,m getting very confused over what I can and cant claim.
I pay for my prescriptions because I read on here somewhere if you are in the esa support group you have to pay.
why do they have to make things so confusing,I would ring them up and ask them but when you do you always have to wait ages on hold

Hi Mandy,

You only qualify automatically for free prescriptions/dental charges if you are receiving income related ESA (in either group). If you are on contributory ESA but low income you might also be entitled to free dental treatment but you would have to apply for this yourself
