Tell all dentists to start accepting NHS patients without the silly waiting list
The Government to tell dentists to accept NHS patients. Waiting lists of 10 yrs in some areas are unacceptable. Dentists can't take NHS patients because they physically can't accommodate them, tell them you want to register as a private patient and the have space for you, which is wholly wrong.
I have not been able to see a dentist for the past 7 years. I am several of my local dentists waiting lists and everytime I see the waiting time, I'm told that I’m looking at another 7-10 years. Unfortunately like many other people across the country, I can’t afford to go private.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The Government isn't responsible for requiring private dentists to take on patients.
