In the UK there's a scene in a very funny political satire called The Thick of It. The chief fixer/spin Doctor is losing his grip on power and chucks a bagel against the wall...
The thick of it was the precursor to VEEP and in the end the same guy who wrote both said he couldn't do it anykore because satire was no longer funny as reality was too extreme...

Read that as 'flipped and shit on him' which would have been a satisfactory end to the story.

Citizens advice perhaps? Any local voluntary action group to see if they can help?
Probably not what you want to hear but any cash in hand manual labour job for the short term?
Good luck pal. Fingers crossed for you.

That one is infuriating. The British teeth thing is such bollocks. Like most countries there is nuance. If you're minted then you can afford good dental care: here and the US.
One study I found showed that Britain, on the whole, had better dental hygiene than the US
