    A: I’ve been using the same dentist for 30 years, my children go there but they are closed to new referrals so mums husband doesn’t have access to a dentist at all. The wait for appointments is considerable. The staff tell me the situation here in wales is dyer and is set to get much worse

    Q: Tell us about your experience, good and bad, with your dentist.
    A: I have been with the same dentist firm for over 20 years but I have not been able to see a dentist – several booked appointments cancelled short notice in sequence so it’s taken me now 7 attempts to see the dentist. My next appt is due on 7th August – if this isn’t cancelled too! Can’t see dental hygienist either as she now only works 1x day per week – her next free appt is inFebruary 2024!
