The Welsh Government Consultation Period

Considering a move towards private dentistry, whether a full or partial conversion, is a big decision and one that needs careful consideration.

For Welsh practices there are some major shifts on the horizon that are already raising eyebrows across the profession.

Here is a brief overview of what’s currently being discussed:

• Changes to the way practices are remunerated
• A move to a single point of entry for NHS patients meaning patient lists could disappear, making a future private conversion more difficult
• A review of recall intervals for routine exams with reduced incentives for delivering them regularly
• The introduction of care packages with added expectations of treatment and follow-ups.

We know that these proposed changes may feel unsettling and you’re not alone.

If you’re ready to explore the idea of moving towards a life in private practice, our team of experts are here to help you assess your current situation and consider your options. They can provide you with all the information you need to make a better-informed decision and evaluate your choices outside the NHS.
