<p>In September, we announced ‘Our plan for patients’, which outlines how we will
meet oral health needs and increase access to dental care, including in Plymouth.</p><p>The
plan includes improvements to ensure dentists are renumerated fairly for more complex
work, allowing greater flexibility to reallocate resources and to utilise dentists
with greater capacity to deliver National Health Service treatment, whilst enabling
full use of the dental team. The plan also includes streamlining processes for overseas
dentists and holding the local NHS to account for dentistry provision. In addition,
Health Education England is also reforming dental education to improve the recruitment
and retention of dental professionals.</p>
