• What's the situation like for NHS dentists in Ldn? Down on the south west you simply can't register with one. NHS patient backlogs are too big and they'd rather take on private paying work.

    I reluctantly paid private to get seen for an issue I had, and my partner had to attend A&E and essentially beg to the relevant department to get an emergency appointment at a hospital for a tooth extraction.

  • Just heard about exactly this today when I spoke to a bloke who had driven his wife over 60 miles to find a NHS dentist.
