Our NHS income is hard-earned enough without attempts to reduce it further. More than ever before we are being forced to deliver a level of care not seen just 10 years ago with spiralling costs.
Why is it so many NHS patients are surprised by the low charges? Something has to change or standards will fall. We know who takes the blame!

Bureaucracy, regulations, inflation and VAT hikes create huge increase in expenses which the SDRs inadequate fees will do not address and the unrealistic cuts make worse. To keep our heads above water the patients will suffer. We choose to work within the NHS to provide a good quality service to those who have the highest demands how do you suggest we do this or are you happy to accept you are promoting inadequate healthcare?

With no increase in the SDR fees and progressive negative changes this will only worsen as costs and overheads forever increase. I understand there are tough financial times, but this is going to drag everyone into further financial problems and ultimately affect patient care.

We are qualified professionals that have undergone extensive training and are audited on cpd by the GDP and treatment quality by the nhs dental reference service. We need to be trusted that we are competent. Treatments sometimes fail for countless reasons other than surgeons competence or care. Current best practice is to conserve tooth tissue by minimal intervention and use of dental adhesives. I believe these cuts in funding will force dentist to modified there prescribing patterns to the detriment of patients care. Shame on the bda for negotiating this deal through with no consultation with their members. Money can be found to pay universal benefits such as free examinations and prescriptions, all political decisions. These are cuts by stealth and should be opposed.

What we are most unhappy about is the lack of discussion on these issues before implementation. Also the first that my practice heard of the changes that take effect from 1st Dec was on the 10th Dec. They adversely affect both ourselves and our patients. Young dentists will feel that if they are treated this way they will have no hesitation in leaving the National Health Service in future to protect both their income/security and their main priority of carrying out the best levels of treatment for their patients.
