I have an issue where my bottom front teeth keep having fillings and they don't last. The last time the dentist filed couple of the teeth down and put fillings in. I told them that they're not holding and I would like composite bonding on them. They told me that I could not get that on the NHS but I believe I can get it for that very reason on band 2 on the NHS purely because the fillings are not working and it's about oral care on the best possible solution to the patient that they should be providing us. Am I correct in pushing for this to be done on band 2 on the NHS? The lost set of fillings were done just under a year ago and have all that come out again.

Why does it come out? It sounds like you have a bruxism issue, and even composite bonding will not last in such a case. Most likely you are looking at crowns.
Do you have photos of your teeth, as well as when you bite?
