answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/01/2021 answer text <p>In England, the number of dentistry school places is regulated by the Government and controlled through annual intake targets operated by the Office for Students. For entry in 2019, the target intake was set at 809 places. This year the Government temporarily lifted this cap for students who completed A-Levels in 2020 and who had an offer from a university in England to study dentistry subject to their grades. This ensured a place this year or next for every eligible student.</p><p>The Government’s current view is that the cap otherwise should remain unchanged over the next five years. We are committed to ensuring that the number of dental school places are in line with England’s workforce requirements and continue to monitor the effectiveness of current arrangements with Health Education England and other partners.</p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill question first answered 14/01/2021 17:09:23 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/12/2020 answer text <p>Dentists contract with the NHS to provide an agreed level of dental activity per year. Where a dentist holds a contract with the NHS they must deliver the agreed activity or, if performance is below 96%, the NHS can recover the unused funds. Dentists therefore have a strong financial incentive to deliver the contracted service. Many dentists provide both NHS and private care but there are usually no shortage of applicants if NHS England and Improvement (NHSE/I) lets a dental contract.</p><p>The amount of dental service is it safe to deliver during COVID-19 has reduced significantly. Dentistry includes a number of aerosol generating procedures (AGPs) which require the highest level of infection protection control including resting the treatment room for up to an hour between patients. We are working hard to try and restore the service.</p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill grouped question UIN 122906 question first answered 30/12/2020 10:59:07 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill
