Dentistry is very tricky. It cost a lot to go to the dentist and very few people actually like going. Which puts it low on totem pole for places to obtain more medical expenses.
Although most people can't afford to go to the dentist, everyone can't afford NOT to go. Dental health issues can lead to so much more, which can make you sick, put you in the hospital and cost you so much more. Also, contrary to popular belief, perfect home dental hygiene still is not enough. Regular checkups and professional cleanings are necessary. Even a brand new, well maintained car will still break down at some point. No different with your teeth. Cavities happen, gingivitis happens, periodontal disease happens and it needs to be treated by a doctor, a dentist.
It may cost you more now, but it will save you a lot more in the long run, including your life!
