Rejected petition Make it law that a child can access a nhs dentist for checkups and treatment

There are less nhs dentists now and many children are now not seeing a dentist. Parents cannot afford private dentistry. Make it law that if a child has no nhs dentist then a dentist will be made available for that child to get dental checkups and treatment for free.

More details

Employ dentists to deal with the dental health of children for free.
