@iangordon1959@NHSBSA@TheBDA@ADG_Dental Find it laughable that I’ve now got to trawl through records to check whether the @NHSBSA have screwed up! No wonder dentists get pissed off. As if I don’t have enough to do! Love the threatening tone of the email as well.
"NHS dentistry feels at its lowest ebb," says @EddieCrouch in the @YorkshirePost
"One Yorkshire MP has it in her power to change this: @RachelReevesMP.
"The political choices that brought us here were made at the Treasury."
"And any solutions will be too."
.@AWMurrison MP rightly dubs UDAs as a 'plague' on the dental profession.
But he's spot on that real reform must go hand in hand with sustainable funding.
"Reform won't work if there's no workforce left by the time it's finally introduced," says @ChrisWebbMP
This profession and the millions we treat need a clear timetable and a sustainable funding model.
"Let me say this clearly, dentists are not the problem," says @DannyVet Chambers MP.
"They're doing the best within a contract that is outdated & damaging."
Thanks to @libdems for speaking out. We must restore care to millions & make patient-centred, preventive care a reality.
Damning from @SteveDarlingMP on 'Golden Hellos'.
They formed part of an NHS dentistry 'Recovery Plan' that was unworthy of the title.
The focus now must be confronting the failed contracts and underfunding fuelling this crisis.
On paper dentists are being offered an uplift of 4%.
The reality is they won’t see anything like this, unless ministers cover the mounting cost of care.
Without real change, practices will remain stuck delivering NHS work at a loss & the exodus from this service will continue.
@BorisJohnson You know that pile of Jabberwocky excrement that you sold us all was as genuine as the fictional beast that defecated it. You set fire to this country and then ran away and now have the gall to stand at the touchline trying to direct the chaos. Disingenuous twit doesn't cover it.

My reception team would like to thank @hmtreasury@RachelReevesMP@wesstreeting for the extra stress they’re now getting from patients who can not afford NHS dentistry
The NHS spends £75M a year on child tooth extractions under GA—treating decay instead of preventing it. What if that money went to fluoride, prevention & education instead? We need a shift from treatment to prevention to stop this crisis. #DentalPublicHealth#PreventionFirst
Trump is a fucking embarrassment and global disgrace. He is bulldozing American democracy to the ground and destabilizing the world. Fuck this traitorous piece of shit and FUCK EACH & EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU WHO VOTED FOR HIM.
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Donald Trump is a pathologically lying, narcissistic, intellectually impaired, felonious, traitorous, sexually predatory motherfucking piece of shit who needs to stay the fuck out of Canada’s business.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
The only reason NHS dentistry has survived as long as it has is due to the STRENGTH and FORTITUDE of the dentists providing it. They make a terrible system work at both financial and personal cost to themselves!
It can not go on!
"The basic facts are that dentists with all the goodwill in the world cannot afford to stay within the NHS," says @RachelGilmourLD MP
"And they are walking away."
A crucial point.
Ministers can't expect health professionals to operate like a charity.

Analysis from my team @TheBDA shows dentists and dental practices are subsidising loss-making NHS treatment to the tune of over £300m per year. This isn't sustainable. https://t.co/xjTwWu4Clt
