PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Dental Services (30 August 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the Answer of 31 July 2024 to Question 1642 on Dental Services, if he will make it his policy to implement the plans to reform dental services set out in the document published by his Department on 7 February 2024 entitled Faster, simpler and fairer: our plan to recover and reform NHS dentistry.

Asked by:
Graham Stuart (Conservative)

Answer

We are currently reviewing the Dental Recovery Plan, and what elements of it can be taken forward effectively and within National Health Service budgets. It is also clear that the plan did not go far enough, and so we are also working on our Dental Rescue Plan, and prioritising initiatives that will see the biggest impact on access to NHS dental care.
