£2m plan to fill dentist places.

Health officers are attempting to get folks in Leicester into the dentists' chair with a 2m campaign. Toby Sanders, NHS Leicester Town's director of first and community care, recounted : We've invested in dental services to make it increasingly simple before for folk to get an appointment. There are lots of dentists across the town waiting to see NHS patients and we need folks to exploit this. Lots of people think they have to register with a dentist and go a fixed quantity of times per year to remain with them. There isn't any need to register with a dentist and they'll tell you how frequently you want to see them primarily based on your wishes. Dentist Philip Martin, chair of Leicestershire and Rutland Local Dental Board , recounted : We especially wish to see folks who have not been to see an NHS dentist for a while back in our practices.
