Great to sit down with @johnmilnehorsham.bsky.social to highlight how underfunding is pushing NHS dentistry to breaking point. Dentists want to provide NHS care, but the system makes it unsustainable. For the sake of our patients, this must change.

Thank you @clivejonesmp.bsky.social for your time and support in our fight to make NHS dentistry available to all those who need it. Too many people are left without access to essential care because the system is broken. @thebda.bsky.social

Lovely to meet @mariecgoldman.bsky.social in Bournemouth to talk about improving access to NHS dentists. Dentistry should not be a luxury or an optional extra, it’s an essential part of healthcare.

Started off a busy day at @LibDems.org.uk speaking at a panel on the cost of accessing dentistry for patients with chronic conditions.
I argued that unless and until we reform and properly fund NHS dentistry, discussions about cost will unfortunately remain, for too many people, purely academic.

Pleasure to meet with @johnwhitbymp.bsky.social today, to discuss the need to get on with dental reform and ensure dentistry gets its fair share of the extra money the Government gave the NHS at the Spending Review. Thank you for your time and support.

Lovely to speak to @rachelgilmourld.bsky.social about delays in rolling out extra urgent appointments & the need for more urgency in overhauling the failed NHS dental contract.
Thanks for continuing to fight for the change your constituents - and millions of others - desperately need.

"By 2035, the NHS dental system will be transformed."
That's the promise in the NHS 10 Year Plan.
Ministers have pledged to begin work this year fixing a failed contract.
They've made the right diagnosis.
But we can’t wait a decade for them to write the prescription.

A stark reminder of why we can’t go on like this.

Pure spin from a brand with form playing fast and loose with health claims, that only signed up to government guidance on weaning as cover.
The conduct of industry spells out exactly why we need change.
