Dentists in Northern Ireland 'considering pulling NHS services'

Описание к видео Dentists in Northern Ireland 'considering pulling NHS services'

The first meeting has been held of a group set up to focus on the rebuilding of dental services in Northern Ireland following the pandemic.
It comes after a warning from the British Dental Association (BDA) in NI.
It says many Northern Ireland dentists are considering pulling out of providing NHS dental care, due to continuing restrictions.
As procedures like teeth cleaning and fillings are "aerosol generating", they are judged a high infection risk.
Dentists have been able to provide routine check-ups, but many procedures mean the surgery has to be left vacant for a period of time to allow any aerosols in the air to settle, before additional cleaning is carried out.
