NO WONDER THE BRITS ARE FAMOUS FOR HAVING LOUSY TEETH: 2 YEAR WAIT TO SEE AN NHS DENTIST

DAILY MAIL: Seven million patients can't find a dentist on the NHS for two years
Short supply: The hardest areas to find an NHS dentist are the South -West and North-West

More than seven million patients have been unable to see an NHS dentist for almost two years.

Most of those denied access have paid for private care instead, says Citizens Advice.

But almost three million have gone without treatment altogether, claims the charity.

The figure includes thousands of children and is much higher than Government estimates.

The charity is calling today for Primary Care Trusts, the bodies responsible for dentistry in England and Wales, to step up funding to improve care for NHS patients.

  • IF HILLARY OR OBAMA OR EDWARDS PROMISED THE ELECTORATE THIS TYPE OF CARE, THEY'D BE LAUGHED OUT OF THE ROOM.
  • THEY SHOULD BE ANYWAY.

SOCIALISM SUCKS. SOCIALIZED MEDICINE SUCKS BIGTIME.

BTW: THESE PEOPLE AREN'T JUST DENIED CARE FOR TWO YEARS: THEY'RE DENIED CARE THEY ACTUALLY PRE-PAID FOR - THROUGH VERY HIGH TAXES!
