Do you have the income, so you can see a Dentist often for a check-up and a clean to your teeth? Say every six months is the general time frame to get checked. Or are you one of the people that simply can't afford to go to the Dentist and only go when you have a toothache and have to pay off the bill or get assistance from Winz (Work and Income New Zealand, provide income support)? I feel the prices are too expensive and that is why the majority don't go regularly and have bad teeth. I am interested who else thinks these prices need to be lowered so we can keep on top of our oral hygiene. And how can we put this into effect so it actually happens. |
