As the crisis in English dental care continues, here are four things that might start to reverse the crisis:

1. Give everyone the right to register with an NHS dentist;

2. Move to yearly (or even biennial) check-ups for patients with no immediate issues;

3. A new dental contract more focussed on prevention;

4. Overhaul funding of NHS dental care.

To some extent simple, but not necessarily politically plausible?

We can but hope something will be done
