Cannot find an NHS dentist

What is the answer here? Checked the website NHS tool, most are not accepting and when you call the 3 that are, all they can do is add you to their ‘very long’ wait list. One told us it was a 4 year wait. Another only accepting patients who reside in that postcode area. I’ve not seen a dentist in 3.5 years since my last checkup in autumn 2019 and although my teeth are ok I’m really quite embarrassed and concerned about this, same goes for DH

Haven't had one since I turned 18 a loooong time ago. Only option is private, and even they have long list now.

The only thing you can do is pay privately. This is the state of NHS dentistry.

Honestly I don’t think we can afford it.
