Rejected petition Enact immediate and urgent measures to provide NHS dental care in Wales.

The last NHS dentist in Aberystwyth is going private from August.
It would appear that this will be the end of NHS dental provision in the whole of Ceredigion.
The welsh government is responsible for providing this service, but is failing in its duty of care to the population.
