If all teeth are white, why are only poor people and homeless people treated free?

General course of Dental care (excluding dentures)











Two questions about Victoria’s public dental service:

- Why is it that only people who can't afford dental care get help?

- Why do asylum seekers with no money need teeth? After all they can't afford to eat much.



UPDATE

It's not as though white middle class people aren't struggling to remember to go to the Dentist :
The annual visit to the dentist is becoming difficult to remember for many Australians, with a new report showing about 40 per cent of the population do not go for regular check-ups.
