What happens when you get to see a dentist and they won't give you any treatment even though a lot is needed and you are living on prescription fortisip for 5 years?

HIGHLY recommend this book if anyone is interested in the dire situation we have in dental care in America: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/?ean=9781620974827

14 years of the corrupt lying tories, it will be even worse if Farage and his corrupt cronies ever get near power

Our teeth are as vital to us as the blood in our veins. They affect our mental health & when things go wrong, pain can be unbearable, effecting our daily lives.

I'd like to see a far greater commitment by NHS, ministry of health & private insurers to make dental care more affordable & available.

Not only that they also affect the heart and increase inflammation etc! https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11169959/

They could easily get their teeth removed for free outside most city centre nightclubs in the UK around 2am.

Now let's let streeting and labour and other parties like Reform and Conservatives privatise the rest of the NHS and see the bodies lining up at the undertakers.

Surely it's the Democratic NHS dental crisis🤔

My daughter lives in Norwich - Her closest NHS dentist taking patients?...... Bedford!

joobileejoolz.bsky.social•19 days ago

My closest NHS dentist is less than half a mile away and claims to have spaces for NHS patients but the first opportunity for an initial check up appointment is two YEARS +! That doesn’t sound ’available’ to me!

Give Labour a go. They have been in power for six months and given that the rabble who feathered their own nests for years and years had all NHServices on their knees, surely if people are in queues, there is movement.

It should also be exposed the number of new providers signing people up as NHS patients and then telling them that any treatment will have to be undertaken privately.

Billionaires need their super yachts!!

By voting Tory, the people of this country have actively condoned this crisis for over a decade.
