Emergency Dental Treatment

18.

Mr. Bramall
asked the Minister of Health what arrangements he has now made for emergency treatment under the Health Service by dentists of patients who are in pain.

Mr. Blenkinsop
I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply which my right hon. Friend gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Upton (Mr. A. Lewis) on 7th April last. The procedure is being used for over 25,000 patients a week.
