Fix and fund NHS Dentistry NOW!
No more dental deserts. No more DIY dentistry. Fix and fund NHS dentistry so we can all get the dental care we so desperately need.
Why is this important?
Thirteen MILLION of us are still locked out of dental care. After two years of ministers promising to finally fix NHS dentistry, shocking new data just revealed that almost nothing has changed.
That is simply not good enough.
Kids in A&E screaming in agony from tooth pain? Not good enough. Pensioners pulling out their own teeth because they can’t afford to go private? Not good enough. Half-baked tweaks to the system but no money to back it up? Not good enough.
Enough is enough. Incoming PM Andy Burnham actually started trying to fix NHS dentistry back when he was Health Secretary. Now he’s got a huge chance to pick back up where he left off. Think he should make it a priority? Sign the petition now.
