    This holds true in Sweden too. If I fell off a cliff and broke all my bones, my hospital and recovery expenses would be super low. If I broke all my teeth I’d be ruined financially forever, or more realistically, I wouldn’t have any teeth and one hell of a bill for setting my gums straight.

        Ah but you see here in Sweden we have both a fascist nazi coalition and expensive-as-hell dental care! Aren’t you jealous? 🥲

      Same in Canada, I don’t know why it’s so common around the world that ‘universal healthcare’ actually means ‘universal healthcare minus teeth’.
