Verbatim
“the country was in a "dental crisis", with people pulling out their own teeth and children being admitted into hospital to have extractions”
“Not one English region has gotten adult NHS dentistry back to where it stood at the end of 2019.”
“Promised reforms without Treasury cash are worthless. The government must act now: fund it properly, end the postcode lottery, stop forcing families into despair.”
“At its heart, this is a crisis of capacity utterly failing to keep pace with demand.”
