Almost a quarter of Croydon residents have never tried to get an appointment with an NHS dentist within the last two years.
Figures released last week by the Office for National Statistics show 23 per cent of survey respondents across the borough had not tried to get an appointment.
The number is slightly above the national average, which is 22 per cent.
The study also shows that 28 per cent of residents had failed to book to a dentist appointment in the last two years because they felt they didn't need one.
