NOW WE'VE GOT DENTISTS IN TENTS - UK Express They will be offering their services at a third of the cost of treatment available to patients in the UK, where well over a million people now have no access to an NHS dentist because of health reforms introduced by Labour.

It is estimated that up to 40,000 Britons a year already go abroad for dental treatment, and the Conservatives said this latest move made a mockery of Labour�s policy. Shadow Health Minister Mike Penning said: �This is a reflection of the Government�s failed dental contract, which has curtailed access to NHS dentists for well over one million people. The Government should hang their heads in shame.� The scheme starts in Lincoln tomorrow before taking in Glasgow, London, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle and Stockport. The Department of Health�s chief dental officer Barry Cockcroft said: �We are investing an extra �200million in NHS dentistry this year.
