TOOTHLESS in Suffolk is the campaign group that’s calling for full access to local NHS dental treatment — its strapline is “An NHS dentist for everyone.”
The campaign started up in Leiston, a rural town in Suffolk of 5,000 or so residents who found themselves without a single dental practice. It was my friend and fellow Communist Party comrade, Steve Marsling, who alerted me to the problem.
Up until 18 months ago, there were two dental surgeries in Leiston providing NHS treatment.
