Public’s Right to Dental Care

If you have questions about NHS dentists, dental treatment costs, emergency dental care or how to get help with the cost of treatment, you are not alone

The Centre for People’s Justice has identified access to dental care as a priority issue for social justice research because concern about affordability is now widespread. When people cannot afford dental care, they are often left living with pain, struggling to eat, feeling embarrassed about their appearance, and at greater risk of serious health problems. Put simply, a lack of wealth is affecting people’s health.
