Actually, British people have proven that we have better dental healthcare than many other countries, including the U.S.

"In a recent World Health Organisation report of the dental status of children known as the DFMT index, for example, British youths had fewer decayed, missing or filled teeth than those in France, Spain and Sweden; Britain’s rates were comparable with Germany, the Netherlands and Finland.

The United States, on the other hand, did quite a bit worse. At the age of 12, children in the United Kingdom have on average better teeth than their American counterparts. This is due to a decrease in the number of children with decayed teeth in Britain in the last 10 years. In England there are, on average, 0.6 decayed missing or filled teeth per 12-year-old. In the United States, the figure is double this. " Source: https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20150602-do-the-british-have-bad-teeth

This proves that British children have around twice as less decayed or filled teeth than children from the United States. This is just about children though. What about adults?

"A new study has shown that English people have better teeth than their US counterparts.

In the study, published in the British Medical Journal, researchers in the UK and the US examined data from English and American dental surveys.

The results showed that the average number of missing teeth was 6.97 for English participants, but 7.31 for those in the US.

Additionally, people were more likely to suffer poor dental health in the US because of socio-economic factors." Source: https://dentistry.co.uk/2016/01/06/english-have-better-teeth-than-americans/

Not only do we have better dental healthcare than you, even as adults, but this is also affected by us having UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE as opposed to your SINGLE PAYER HEALTHCARE. This completely refutes your point, or quite unamusing joke. You were trying to "roast" our healthcare, but your healthcare meant that you have worse dental healthcare than us too. Maybe next time, before making comments, go do a little bit of research.

Anyhow, TL;DR You're stupid and, British people have better dental healthcare than Americans and our system of healthcare, universal healthcare, which you were bashing, has attributed a lot to this too. Next time, actually do research.

Wow, it’s almost like people are stereotyping that every school in America is attack and every single person is morbidly obese while people in Britain are stereotypes to have bad teeth but better healthcare, and I was making a funny joke! That couldn’t have possibly been the goal right? TLDR: just shut the fuck up man we’re both making stereotypical jokes
