Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

A dentist shall compile and make available, to the Board (if it requires one) and to any person who may reasonably require one, a document about the provision of general dental services at his practice premises (in this paragraph called a “patient information leaflet”) which shall include the information specified in Schedule 6.

(2)

A dentist shall make any amendments to his patient information leaflet which he considers to be necessary to maintain its accuracy.

(3)

A dentist who practises in partnership or under an associateship agreement with other dentists whose names are included in the dental list shall satisfy the requirements of this paragraph if he makes available a patient information leaflet, compiled and, where appropriate, amended in accordance with sub-paragraphs (1) and (2), which relates to the partnership or associateship as a whole.
