Press Release

Teething problems

Wednesday 31st January 2007

Which? responds to reports that dentists are having to turn away patients, Frances Blunden, health campaigner for Which? says:

“Patients should never be left without access to treatment. It is difficult enough for UK residents to have access to NHS dentistry in the first place.

“The Department of Health needs to ensure patients aren’t suffering because of the new dental contract, particularly those who do not have to pay NHS charges.

“This is a new system and a new responsibility for PCTs, but patients should not be penalised for its teething problems.”
