WHEN about half of all children in Bradford have rotting teeth and nationally tooth decay is still the number one reason young children are hospitalised, a terrible statistic, in England, we simply have to stop tolerating this year after year and DO something now. Many reading this may wonder why something significant hasn't been done about this national child tragedy earlier, especially given dental problems are easily preventable in over 90 per cent of cases, that children's dental care is actually FREE on the NHS in England and this has been warned about many times in the past - surely Government should be prioritising such prevention, to protect our vulnerable children, instead of making excuses whilst it gets worse year on year.
