@43d7c4ea I'm an NHS patient, and my present dentist told me that her practice are looking to offload NHS patients as quickly as possible because it's not cost effective, or, as I suspect is the actual case, it's not as profitable as private work.
Those at the bottom of the socioeconomic pile are going to be left to rot

Yes, my (partly) #NHS dentist has reduced the number of #dentists doing NHS work & the last NHS check-up I had was perfunctory & involved a significant level of cross-selling of other privatised services...
