I’m American and in addition to our messed up healthcare system. Teeth are simultaneously so important that I have to see a specialist (dentist) for routine care, but so unimportant that it’s not included in my healthcare coverage. Is it like that elsewhere?
Nope, not in Sweden either, but some parties (left AND right) are pushing for it.
All tooth-related healthcare is free as long as you’re 23 or younger though, but after that it gets expensive.
