People Britain can now repair their own teeth. They can buy special dental kits supermarkets to fix fillings (called cavities in the USA) and repair caps and crowns. The kits can cost as little as $7. Many people are buying these kits because they cannot afford to go the dentist. The cost having a tooth filled a dentist in England can cost up to $70, which is ten times higher than the price the dental kit. One the biggest selling products is a kit called DenTek. Britons bought 250,000 of these last year. Britain's Dental Health Foundation (DHF) said one in five people the UK would do DIY dentistry on their own teeth or the teeth of family and friends. DIY dentistry includes actually pulling a tooth.

Britain is famous the quality of its free health service. However, this service does not include dental work. The fact that DIY dentistry is increasing so quickly Britain shows that there is a lot poverty and inequality the country. The poorest people cannot afford to go to the dentist. A spokeswoman a local community Scotland said: "DIY dentistry is fairly common here. They sell a lot those dental kits – you can buy them [supermarkets]. And you've got people taking care their whole family's teeth." The DHF said many people would rather spend their money a haircut or a night out than their teeth. She said different people place different importance visiting the dentist.
