This includes information on whether they are accepting new patients. In circumstances where patients are unable to access an urgent dental appointment directly through an NHS dental practice, they should contact NHS 111.</p> answering member constituency Aberafan Maesteg answering member printed Stephen Kinnock question first answered 30/07/2024 10:41:10 answering member 4359 label Biography information for Stephen Kinnock
