Experts have urged the Government to ‘pick up pace and keep its promises’ on dentistry
A poll reveals that over a quarter of Britons unable to get NHS dental appointments in the last two years have resorted to self-treatment, while almost one in five sought treatment abroad. Many are concerned about NHS dental care availability, with half unconfident they can book routine appointments and over half unconfident about emergency care access. The British Dental Association highlights the crisis, while the government cites ongoing efforts to increase urgent appointments and prevent tooth decay and plans for dental contract reform.
