The First Supermarket Dentist

UK citizens can now see the dentist while they shop. This week British celebrity dentist Lance Knight opened the first dental practice located inside of a supermarket. So far it has been a success as the supermarket dentist's first patients love the idea and ease of seeing the dentist and grocery shopping at the same place, and are satisfied with their treatments and low costs. The office is open 7 days a week from 8am-8pm giving the locals ample access to a variety of dentistry services.

The goal of the supermarket location idea is to make dental procedures and advice more accessible to the everyday person, something that has recently become more difficult in the UK with its recent shortage of dentists. Estimates are that in some areas half of the population is without a dentist and as a result thousands have been forced to travel abroad to Hungary, Croatia and Poland to seek treatment.
