Why is the west so bad? Is it all the sugar and fizzy sodas?

That is probably a factor yeah, but also many (possibly most?) of the western european countries that have public healthcare do not include dental. And dental is expensive as fuck.

Yeah, back when I was struggling financially I would avoid the dentist like the plague and pray that I never get any major issues
