British Mental Health's Bleak Future Tied To Teeth

Provocative headline, no? Well, news reports have come out of Britain that people are beginning to do their own dental work, including supergluing old crowns back into place, because the wait for a dentist appointment takes too long due to the shortage of dentists. Dentists can opt out of the socialized program to make more money, but Brits don't want to pay out of pocket for dental care to private practices when they've been so used to the nanny state caring for them. Now there's a new study that predicts a higher incidence of dementia when correlated with tooth loss. See? Socialized healthcare is driving the Brits crazy!
