What countries have national dental insurance?

Canadian Snowman asked:


What countries have national dental insurance? I currently live in Canada, we have free health insurance, but not dental. :( I am a 21 year old finishing college and going to university next year, after that I’d live to establish myself in a country with benefits of free health, dental, and vision care.

Does anyone recommend any countries?

The UK, however, if you live in England and are over 16 and working you have to pay for dental treatment, prescriptions and any services or products from an opticians, so healthcare is not completely free. If you live in Scotland it is free and University is free there as well (but not for international students). What you also have to bare in mind is the reason why healthcare is free, the UK has very high tax and VAT, you should take that into account before you move anywhere.
