What the petition asks
The Government should increase funding for NHS dental services to ensure that all adults in England can easily register with a local NHS dentist.
The waiting lists can be absolutely horrendous, and it is much harder for many people to find an NHS dentist. Unfortunately many dentists have gone private.
By increasing funding for NHS dentistry the Government can ensure that every adult in England has easy access to an NHS dentist.
