Children get free dental treatment almost everywhere because society has decided kids’ teeth are precious national treasures. Adults? More like disposable coffee cups. In Australia, the Child Dental Benefits Schedule gives kids up to $1,000 for two years, while adults get… a pat on the back and a bill.
But here’s the twist: if you’re over 65 and broke, some countries scramble to help. In Canada, provinces like Ontario offer free basic dental for seniors on low incomes—but you’ll need a form thicker than a romantic novel and the patience of a saint. Joke: “I asked my dentist if he takes Medicare. He laughed so hard he chipped my other tooth.”
