Can confirm the UK is in the middle of a dental crisis.
My own experience was waiting on a list at the practice the rest of my family goes to for 5 yrs before they admitted they are short on dentists and haven’t been able to fill spots.
I then had to spend an afternoon phoning around 40 of the local dentists looking for someone that could put me on there books.
On the up side I am getting the tidy up work I have needed since just before lockdown on the teeth I smashed as a drunk teen at last

It’s more that dentistry is more about health than cosmetics.
