    Q: Tell us about your experience, good and bad, with your dentist.
    A: I’ve lived in Wrexham for 22 years and have always had to pay private for a dentist no one taking on NHS patients some years ago the government decided to subsidise Polish Dentists and one sprung up here Of course, it was inundated with people, but it was just a moneymaking exercise for them you queued up went in like a to conveyor belt got an examination never heard from them again then they disappeared Obviously after making a pile of money they went back to Poland so had to return to the private dentist my son as a child could go to the children’s dentist on Grosvenor Road Wrexham but now as an adult has to go private as well. He is lucky because he’s got perfect teeth which from a young age I used to help clean them. You never hear any campaigns about keeping children’s teeth healthy, showing them how to brush properly without gimmicks, telling parents up to the age of about seven they should also be brushing their teeth for them, and encouraging to brush after eating anything, as well as not giving babies and young children, sweets and juice. Perhaps if this government stopped teaching our kids about
    Transvestites they wouldn’t need Dentists so much as we got older
