I had a toothache when I lived in Britain. I went to the Dentist and he drilled and filled my tooth. I was surprised that he didn’t clean my teeth also. The ladies at work pointed out that tooth cleaning is ‘only cosmetic after all’. Now you know the truth about British teeth! Preventative care is ‘only cosmetic’.
At least the poor in the UK don't die from rotting teeth like they do in Canada. You'd think their universal health care would include basic dental care like in the UK.
