Children and teenagers underwent almost 43,000 "completely preventable" operations to remove rotting teeth last year, costing the NHS more than £36m, according to new figures.
Analysis of NHS spending data by the Local Government Association (LGA) found that £36.2m was spent on 42,911 extractions for under-18s in 2016/17, which equates to 170 operations a day.
It represents an almost-20% increase over the past four years and a total cost to the NHS of £165m since 2012, as many youngsters face trips to hospital for operation under general anaesthetic due to the severity of their tooth decay.
An NHS England spokesman said eating sugary food and drinks was "driving this unfortunate and unnecessary epidemic", with the LGA's figures released just a week after Public Health England (PHE) said half of children's sugar intake came from unhealthy snacks and drinks.
