  <strong>Limitations of Foundation Dentist Data</strong><br>
<p>Data is based on any Foundation Dentist (FD) who qualified in the previous financial year. Please note that not all FDs will work in NHS Primary Care Dentistry after qualification – usually, around 70% of FDs do carry out some NHS dental activity in the year following their qualification. Data for 2022-23 is not provided, as these newly qualified dentists are yet to complete a full year post-qualification.
