RE: Toothache: Freewrite Challenge
In the UK, the dentist is free for children but you have to pay as an adult. If you are out of work, then you can get it done for nothing.

Here in the US, insurance that follows the Obamacare rules has to include dental insurance for kids (still not free), but there's nothing like that for adults. Some people may have very good dental coverage from work, but most dental insurance only fully pays for preventative care. If you need something major, you will pay. For lots of us, affording dental is tougher than affording medical care.
