Increase NHS dental care funding to improve availability for child and adults

I call upon the Government to increase funding for NHS dental care in England to improve availability of services. Waiting lists of several years in some areas are just unacceptable. I have called over 100 dentists, some that were 4 hours away and are not accepting any NHS patients.

I have not been able to see a dentist in 4 years. I have been on my local dentists waiting list for 3 years and found out that I’m looking at another 4 years. I can’t afford to go private, just like many other people in this country.
