Meeting description: We provided an update on recent developments in relation to National Health Service dentistry in Scotland. We discussed payment reform from 1 November including what the changes to the payment system for National Health Service dentistry would mean for patients and dental teams. We highlighted why evaluation of this change would be critical in the next stage of reform and that consideration of its impact on dental access and health inequalities would be needed. Lastly we discussed waiting times for dental general anaesthetics.
