I cannot afford NHS dental treatment but what can be done?

Q. hi i really hope you can help me i had an accident when i was young and lost four of my front teeth. since then i have had drowns which have been fine until now. over the last couple of years i have had a problem with one tooth in particular it keeps falling out because the remaining tooth is damaged. i have seen at least 6 different nhs dentists who are reluctant to help and send me to private dentists who want to charge me a fortune! i would just like to be seen by a cofident and competent dentist who can give me the right advice and treatment. i have ssen one dentist who was prepared to do the extraction of the damaged tooth and th eroot treatment to the tooth next to it but they are ceasing to exist before my treatment can be done! i dont know where to turn or what is the best treatment for me can i have an implant or a bridge on the nhs?,
A. you can only keep searching, a teaching dental hospital is probably your best bet. Rob
