Are teeth considered healthcare in your country? (kbin.social)

I'm American and in addition to our messed up healthcare system. Teeth are simultaneously so important that I have to see a specialist (dentist) for routine care, but so unimportant that it's not included in my healthcare coverage. Is it like that elsewhere?

I feel you. I'm near that for three protruding discs in my neck with one pushing on my spinal cord.

12 months to see a hospital physio who got me in front a surgeon the next day, he wondered how I was still walking. 9 months later, im still waiting for something to happen next.
