Falling numbers of NHS dentists are forcing many patients to go without treatment or even try pulling out their own teeth, a study has revealed.Oh my....Socialized medicine sucks....and if we get it, so will you....that is, your food out of a straw because you will have to pull your own teeth out....
Cost is a major factor
Almost a fifth (19%) of those questioned said they had missed out on dental work because of the cost.
The research found 6% had even resorted to treating themselves because they could not find a dentist.
The 5,000-plus patients who were interviewed also spoke of taking out their own teeth or fixing broken crowns with glue.
One person in Lancashire said he had carried out 14 separate extractions with a pair of pliers.
