Dental Services: Aldershot
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to increase access to NHS dentistry in Aldershot constituency.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
This Government plans to tackle the challenges for patients trying to access National Health Service dental care with a rescue plan to provide 700,000 more urgent dental appointments and recruit new dentists to areas that need them most. To rebuild dentistry in the long term and increase access to NHS dental care, we will reform the dental contract, with a shift to focus on prevention and the retention of NHS dentists.
