I'm 19 and living in the UK where dental work is not free. I was not warned about the seriousness of taking care of my teeth when I was growing up and was shocked when I found out dental work wasn't free like it had been when I was under 18. I have huge cavities due to lack of care but it'll cost like £500+ to fix my teeth. I found out that pregnant woman get free dental work so I think I'm going to take advantage of that when I'm older and when I do want kids at around like 25-30 I'll get my teeth done for free then...
