White teeth.
From April 2006, PCTs will be given devolved budgets to commission NHS dental services in an attempt to redress the chronic shortages in some areas. Burnley, Pendle and Rossendale PCT has a plan to recruit dentists to the area, including working with Liverpool University dental school. Nationally, there are concerns that dental initiatives will get lost in the quagmire of PCT reconfigurations and that the new target-led dental contract will drive many dentists into private practice.
