Number of NHS GDPs1 by NHS Board and deprivation category of practice location at 31 March 2005
General dental practitioners (GDPs) enter into a contract with their local NHS board. A GDP may have:
-
more than one contract with an NHS board if he/she has more than one practice
-
a contract with more than one NHS board if he/she practises in more than one NHS board.
As a result, the sum of the number of dentists in each NHS Board area exceeds the number of dentists practising in Scotland.
The table below shows the number of dentists in post (not the whole-time equivalent number, as the working hours of each dentist are not collected). It should be noted that these data exclude salaried principal dentists.
