Oral health is an important part of health as it influences the general wellbeing and quality of life of people. A person does not need to wait for problems to appear before seeing a dentist. Regular dental visits can help to prevent problems.
NHS England has recruited two Walsall dental practices, to provide the full range of NHS dental treatments for people who are classed as refugees / migrants / homeless until 31 March 2024. This includes:
• those in bridging and contingency hotels.
• refugee / migrant people who have other accommodation.
• homeless people including those who “sofa surf”
