The BDA makes the case in oral evidence today - the DDRB needs to listen - NHS Dentistry is hanging by a thread across the UK. All the best! @Russell_WGDPC #welshdental @TheBDA @crooks_peter #BDAWales @martinwoodrow69 @EddieCrouch @Laurenharrhy85 @Eluned_Morgan

A 95% target: NHS dentists have effectively been told to return to 'business as usual'.   We’re still working to restrictions, tackling an unprecedented backlog amid staff absences & patient cancellations.    This isn't 'living with COVID'. It's setting practices up to fail.

Officials have now confirmed that NHS dentists will head to work in the morning – the first day of the financial year - with no sense of what’s expected of them. ⤵️ 1/3

With an estimated 50% of colleagues only able to hit Q4 threshold I really hope the delay from @NHSEngland is because they realise 100% activity will push more colleagues out of the NHS Hopefully even a rethink of Q4 threshold as asked @mariacaulfield

"For over a decade dentists have been forced to do more with less - often at the expense of their own well-being”, says @Russell_WGDPC Why NHS dentistry in Wales needs more than a sticking plaster when it comes to funding 👇 itv.com/news/wales/202…


LDC colleagues - remember that the deadline for submitting motions and nominations is getting closer - 8 April. Lots of advice on the LDC Conference website ldcuk.org

Today we went to Number 10 to talk about the obstacles to careers and progression in dentistry. The key barrier is a failed NHS contract. Until we see change a growing number of dentists will see no future in this service.
