A Third of Sheffield Does Not See Dentist
The UK Star recently reported that one third of the population of Sheffield, England does not go to a NHS dentist.
These numbers are centered on the fact that more and more people have been going to hospitals for emergency dental surgery. According to Dr. Spencer Pitfield he states, “It's an alarming number of people. These figures underline once again the Labour Government's appalling failure on NHS dentistry”
Do you think it is better to have government run programs or prefer private practices that can provide better care? Do you think it would be better to see a dentist or rather go to a hospital for emergency dental care?
