<p>Our Dentistry Recovery Plan, backed by £200 million, will make dental services
faster, simpler, and fairer for National Health Service dental patients. It will fund
approximately 2.5 million additional appointments, or more than 1.5 million additional
courses of dental treatment. A New Patient Premium is supporting dentists to take
on new patients and since the end of January, nearly 500 more practices have said
they are open to new patients. No estimates are currently available on the number
of new patients seen by dental practices in Norfolk but we are committed to evaluating
the impacts of the measures included in our plan, and we will publish monthly data
on progress once this is available. The Find a Dentist website allows people to see
which practices in their area have said they are accepting new patients which is available
