NHS DENTAL COVER IN LOOE

As residents will know that since the closure of the only adult NHS dental practice in Looe back in December 2010 everyone has had to travel a long way to get NHS treatment.   At he most recent Cornwall Council Adult Health Overview Scrutiny Committee (link https://democracy.cornwall.gov.uk/documents/s43367/Access%20to%20NHS%20Dental%20Services%20in%20Cornwall.pdf ) a health report showed that the old Caradon Area of Cornwall has a desperate need for NHS provision.  I have for some time been talking to the PCT over the underprovision in Looe and have made some significant progress with them and we are talking to a provider over coming to Looe.  This has been a long term project and hopefully i will be able to udate you further by the end of April. 

If you have a specific problem please contact me at atoms@cornwall.gov.uk

Thanks Armand
