- Dentists are to be offered cash to take on new patients and given “golden hellos” to work in communities with a lack of NHS dental services, according to leaked plans.
The NHS Dental Recovery Plan was supposed to be published on Wednesday but an early version of the document was sent out to MPs of all parties accidentally.

Too busy working on the 170 thousand refugees who need seen first
You have proof of this, or just a basic racist?
@@easy1355 you're the only one who brought up race? Distraction much
@@ChrisMurray-iw9ij no, I think we both know you did, you were just too scared to admit it.
@@easy1355 what race are refugees? What's happened is you're hoping to stop people speaking the truth with name calling
@@ChrisMurray-iw9ij they are ALL races, kind of my point.
Remember when dentists cared for people ? Now we are used to bad teeth. And pain killers
This is not an issue caused by dentists
The dentists are too greedy they should care for all patients rich or poor & not based treating people on ability to pay or not !
Many treatments are delivered at a loss on the NHS by dentists. They do not get paid fee per item, and they do not get salaries. They get paid the same for 5, 8 or 10 procedures as they do for 3. This is why so few will take on new patients on the NHS , as because of their typically greater treatment needs,the practice will incur a loss to treat these patients, sometimes a very big one . The only way to make it make it work is to cross subsidise NHS care with revenues from pvt work/pvt patients
, to make up for losses incurred delivering NHS work OR leave the NHS altogether. Many pts don’t realise this, and keep assuming dentists are greedy. The Practices have operational costs to cover and if their businesses go under from insufficient revenue, the NHS won’t bail them out, but simply will take its contract back and award it to another party. The contractor is left in financial ruin. IF the NHS would pay the Dental practice for all the work patient needed rather than a flat rate, no matter how much each patient needed, and made sure the dentist got paid their fair share, and the money was not just hoarded by the owners, many of them corporate, then almost all the problems with NHS dentistry could be fixed. The funding for NHS Dentistry has stayed flat for nearly 20 yrs it’s inevitable that the system is now in disarray.
Dentist for the highest bidder now is it.
Dentists know they will still get more money doing private work.
Private dentists have more work than they can handle, so why on earth would they want to work for the NHS? As well as getting better paid they also generally have to deal with far fewer nasty patients.
Thats why this NHS system stinks. Everyone should have to have some type of health insurance to cover this bill then the dentists get paid the same no matter what patient.
Not helping nearly a million coming in every year
Make a way for foreign dentists to work in the nhs.
Problem has been the same since the Blair government. It just cycles every few months when there is no new story's.
Liverpool has been offering free Dental Interventions for many years now if you speak to the wrong person in an inappropriate way
It would be great if NHS dentists could also offer services on par with private practices, too. Such as working to save a tooth rather than pulling it out. I had a brief encounter with the NHS where the NHS dentist told me that, to save a tooth, I would have to pay privately. Also, how about implants and so on? Teeth are important
Dentists carrying out triage like there is a war.
20k ? For dentists ? And we wonder why doctors and nurses are on strike ? Never seen a skint dentist , but 85% of nurses are skint
STOP ALLOWING SO MANY FOREIGNERS INTO THE U.K ....LOOK AFTER YOUR OWN FIRST...
I spent £240 to go private. I would have paid triple to get rid of the pain. I went to my normal dentist and she said it just needed painkillers but I knew it was something more nasty. I phoned around and went to a dentist the next day appointment. He took an x- ray and said there was an abscess. I got great treatment and no more tooth ache. But at the same time my normal dentist is generally very good.
Doesnt happen in Australia. We either have insurance which covers us fully or if youre hard up and cant the govt covers you no issue.
Even if you register as an NHS patient, treatment is not free unless you claim benefits, an nhs crown will cost more than £300 and likely be a limited basic version.
i like how these dentists and their unions and their associations just let it happen.
Is this Governemnt God?
Nobody could have put meaningful resistance to them?
St Paul's is like another country here in Bristol. 😂
It was one of the first diversity areas of the country.
It is a running joke to lock your car doors when passing through there haha.
BTW I'm not belittling their problems. My family have been affected by the dentists turning their backs on us.
the irony is, while they're waiting for asylum claim to be granted they get free instant private health care a dentistry, once granted they have to queue with the rest of us.
aint that bad there come to knowle west haha our uncle used to run the duke of york up st judes good people up there man 😁😁
"Allowing new patients phased" ...I bet friends & family are getting to know WHEN this is.
they should be docked money for not taking on nhs clients tbh useless
Is there any Brexit opportunities, freedoms or funding to assist the dental crisis before it turns in to a drama?
C'mon BJ, JRM & Farage get to work.....
Thank god for diversity!!😂😂😂3
Maybe look after your teeth then you wouldn’t have this problem of bad teeth
