To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, which dental practices in Norfolk have been accepting new NHS patients since 1 March 2024.

Our Dentistry Recovery Plan, backed by £200 million, will make dental services faster, simpler, and fairer for National Health Service dental patients. It will fund approximately 2.5 million additional appointments, or more than 1.5 million additional courses of dental treatment. A New Patient Premium is supporting dentists to take on new patients and since the end of January, nearly 500 more practices have said they are open to new patients. No estimates are currently available on the number of new patients seen by dental practices in Norfolk but we are committed to evaluating the impacts of the measures included in our plan, and we will publish monthly data on progress once this is available. The Find a Dentist website allows people to see which practices in their area have said they are accepting new patients which is available here: https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/find-a-dentist
