Dentist-2u, based in Bolton, delivers essential care directly to those unable to attend traditional appointments, focusing on elderly and housebound patients living in care homes or with complex medical needs. The service reaches more than 200 care homes and has supported over 2,000 residents who cannot travel to a dental surgery. A spokesman for Dentist-2u said: "From our base in Bolton, we’ve grown to support more than 200 care homes and have already provided dental care to over 2,000 residents who are unable to leave their homes or care settings. "Thousands of older and vulnerable people are living with unnecessary dental pain simply because they cannot physically access a dental practice. Dentist-2u says it wants to ensure that no one in need of dental care is left without support.
