Background

I want the government to provide funding and encourage dentists to reopen their lists for NHS patients.

Additional details

Many dentists are not taking on new NHS patients. Private practices are in abundance but I think the average working person cannot afford their fees. I think we are going backwards in providing basic dental care.
