Could parts of Dentistry be down graded to allow "lesser qualified technicians" to work standard dentistry?

Cleaning and filling teeth cannot be as complicated an operation as it's made out to be, by any stretch of the imagination. The current situation in the UK is that millions are receiving "excessively sub standard care or none at all" with some even reverting to extracting their own teeth (stone age like) in desperation. If qualified doctors are beyond working for National Health rate of pay and there is no more left in the pot to give, then our dear "Labour" government, break away from the status quo and arrange some form of affordable alternative, it's your duty to manage. Help the poorer in society who probably voted for you in hope of better things to come and are feeling very let down by you. We hear you continually preaching "healthy options" no smoking, no exessive drinking , no this, no that, what could really be worse for a persons health than a mouthful of rotting teeth and maybe gum disease as well, so come on Labour Government what will you do about it, and when?
