Number of emergency calls for dental pain surges to record high
THE number of 111 calls made for dental problems are at a record high of over 1.2 million this year, figures published today show.
The figures even surpass the number of calls made during the pandemic, when patients could not see an NHS dentist.
An analysis of government data by the Labour Party found that 4.8 million people called NHS 111 for dental problems in the last five years.
