Information is not available in the form requested. Information is available on the level of general dental care commissioned by primary care trusts (PCTs) and on the services provided. However, the two data returns cannot be directly compared.
The first data set shows (for a given month) the prospective annual level of services that have been commissioned as at that point. However, the annual services commissioned at a given point in time will not necessarily remain a reliable guide to the services due to be provided over the following 12 months, because levels of commissioning can change from month to month. For instance, the volume of services commissioned as at March 2007 is higher than the volume of services commissioned as at April 2006.
The second data set shows courses of treatment (and the corresponding units of dental activity) reported by dentists and processed by the NHS Business Services Authority up to the end of March 2007. This does not, however, represent the full-year data for 2006-07 because further courses of treatment carried out in 2006-07 were reported and processed during the first quarter of 2007-08. The full-year data are likely to be published in August.
The following tables contain information by PCT on dental services commissioned as at 31 March 2007, expressed as numbers of units of dental activity is provided in the following tables. Units of dental activity are a weighted measure of the annual courses of treatment provided for NHS patients. This information does not include orthodontics or other specialist services. This information is also available at:
www.performance.doh.gov.uk/dental_contracts/index.htm
Information on courses of treatment (and the corresponding units of dental activity) reported and processed up to the end of March 2007 is contained in a report published by the Information Centre for health and social care: “NHS Dental Statistics for England: Quarter 4:31 March 2007” which is available in the Library.

Information is not held centrally in this form. Information has been placed in the Library which shows the ratio of case assessments to case starts (i.e. the start of a course of treatment) notified to the Business Services Authority, Dental Services Division for the period April 2006 to March 2007 for national health service orthodontic services provided under primary care contracts. However, there are likely to be a number of potential reasons (i.e. not limited to decisions that a patient is not eligible for treatment) why a case assessment is not followed by a case start.
Under the dental reforms introduced in April 2006, all providers of primary care orthodontic services are required to use a well-established index of orthodontic treatment need to assess eligibility for NHS treatment. This provides a fairer and more consistent way of assessing clinical needs and ensuring that resources are deployed on treatments that bring genuine health gain. It is for primary care trusts to agree local clinical governance frameworks that cover what information providers of orthodontic services have to make available to demonstrate compliance with this and other contractual requirements.
Primary care trusts and local providers of national health service dental services are responsible for seeking to resolve any disputed elements of NHS contracts. If the parties cannot reach a local resolution, the dispute can be referred to the NHS Litigation Authority. The NHS primary care contracting team offers and provides support and advice on dispute resolution to those commissioners who request it.
Eighty seven per cent. of all those contracts originally signed in dispute have so far been resolved. Well over 99 per cent. of the disputes so far resolved have ended in the dentist deciding to stay with the NHS.
