- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many domiciliary dental visits were undertaken by the Community Dental Service in England in each year since 2010/11.
- Answer
-
We do not hold data on the wait times for domiciliary care or the number of appointments carried out by Community Dental Services (CDS).
Domiciliary dental services are commissioned locally by integrated care boards to support those who are unable to access high street dental practices due to medical, physical, or psychological conditions. This is largely through CDSs, which carry the required expertise and equipment to treat individuals who are housebound or living in care settings.
