Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether his Department has a timeline for when all routine NHS dental treatments will be available across England.

All dental practices with a National Health Service dental contract have been able to open for face-to-face NHS care, including routine care, from 8 June. The guidance from NHS England and NHS Improvement to NHS dental contract holders states that the reopening of dental practices must take place in a safe manner and follow the Public Health England and NHS England and NHS Improvement infection prevention and control guidance.

Over 600 urgent dental centres remain open across England to support dental patients with their urgent dental care needs through face to face treatment.
