Our Community dental services have historically provided a wide range of services and population access. We have been instrumental in developing clinical dental pathways for the South West and have key input into many stakeholder groups, enjoying recognition and support from the Trust leadership and close ties with external colleagues such as the South West Regional Chief Dentist.
