The Mirror launched a petition to save NHS dentistry, which has currently received over 160,000 signatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The campaign is calling for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Everyone to have access to an NHS dentist<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Restore funding for dental services and recruit more NHS dentists<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Change the contracts so that dentists can treat on the basis of patient need. A parliamentary report had branded the current system as \u201cnot fit for purpose.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The chair of the British Dental Association, Eddie Crouch, has supported the campaign. He said: \u201cA wealthy 21st century nation has seen its citizens pulling out their own teeth with pliers, while others queue from the crack of dawn to access care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUnderfunding and failed contracts, the crisis millions face is the result of political choices.
