Toothless in Suffolk campaigners hail victory for county’s children

CAMPAIGNERS fighting to save NHS dental care in Suffolk hailed yesterday a potentially landmark deal to secure “real improvements to dental provision in the county.”

Toothless in Suffolk told the Morning Star that pressure from activists has forced integrated care board commissioners to commit to treating children, homeless people and the most vulnerable. 

At a meeting last Thursday, officials agreed to set up a new mobile unit to tour the county and treat those most in need, said the campaign group, which works closely with the British Dental Association.
