Nearly 2,000 more people are being deregistered by their dental practice in Dumfries and Galloway.
Nearly 2,000 more NHS patients are facing deregistration by their dental practice in Dumfries and Galloway.
NHS Dumfries and Galloway's director of dentistry Alison Milne said it meant they would now have to seek alternative provision. She said the students involved could offer a single course of treatment to patients not registered with an NHS dentist. "This is terrible news but sadly, no-one in our region will be remotely surprised that once again, thousands of people are losing their access to NHS dentistry," he said."Even more patients in Dumfries will now have to join many others across the region in either having to pay for private care or try to find another dentist that provides NHS care outwith the region."
