6.8 million have performed dentistry on themselves (perhaps including giving a child a toffee so their tooth finally comes out). 3.4 million have done this in the "last 2 years" (presumably a lot when dentists were closed due to covid)

That's the same with any show with a laugh track. The pauses for the laughs make them sound very unnatural if you remove them, but if you didn't have laugh tracks you wouldn't have those pauses.

That's an interesting claim, certainly believable if you look at direct deaths (which globally is probably under 100 - almost entirely from Chernobyl, especially if you count Kyshtym as military).
I'd love to see the source
Estimating, and attributing things like cancer correctly (reduction in life span and life quality) from things like construction and dismantling, uranium mining, etc is trickier.
On the other hand so is the mining for the metals needed for solar, and the construction risk per kWh I would guess are orders of magnitude higher for solar (especially rooftop solar)
I'm sure both are dwarfed by the impact from oil, gas and coal though.

£50 is checkup for the family. Fillings and crowns etc are extra - £65 for a filling, £280 for a crown/denture/etc
