Healthwatch Croydon on dentistry

Dentistry is classed, along with pharmacy and optometry, as a separate set of NHS services from primary care, yet these are services patients use regularly.
From words to action; from action to outcome

We want to ensure that the purpose of the new South West London LDC structure is clear.
Sutton Steps Forward

As an LDC we recognise the effect on the profession and the future of NHS dental services and it is our vision to empower local dentists to provide the care their patients require with a supportive local network and NHS contract.
Proactive in Croydon

As part of the Local Care Partnership, the borough level arm of the South West London Integrated Care System, the Board will be driving information about health inequalities and developing strategies to reduce them. Part of reducing health inequalities is ensuring access to NHS dental services.
