The problems in accessing care will ‘inevitably cost lives’, dental leaders have said.
Difficulties in accessing NHS dentists could have led to an increase in mouth cancer deaths, a health charity has warned.
“With access to NHS dentistry in tatters, we fear that many people with mouth cancer will not receive a timely diagnosis,” he told the broadcaster.The patient watchdog has said that access to care is the main issue reported. “This condition causes more deaths than car accidents. With rates surging we need more than radio silence from Westminster.”
“Ultimately, the dental system needs fundamental reform to increase and attract more dentists, improve oral health from birth, reduce cost and improve access when required. “The answer is to stop people smoking rather than try and treat the consequence of cancers as a result of people smoking, it’s far better to prevent the cancer, than focus on how we better treat it,” he said.
