(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations further amend the National Health Service (Dental Charges) Regulations 1989 (“the Dental Charges Regulations”).

The main purpose of the amendments is to make provision for charges for dental services, provided under a pilot scheme for personal dental services established under the National Health Service (Primary Care) Act 1997, to be made and recovered in like manner as charges may be made and recovered under the Dental Charges Regulations in respect of general dental services provided under part II of the National Health Service Act 1977. The Regulations also make minor miscellaneous amendments.
