Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire ICB Statement re BUPA Dental Practice St Pauls

30 June 2023

 

We know that access to NHS dentistry in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire is challenging and we are working hard to try and improve the situation for residents.

Following the recent announcement of the closure of the BUPA dental practice in St Pauls, we had a positive meeting with the St Pauls Dentist Action Group this week to discuss the challenges of local dental provision and understand the impact of the closure on local patients.

We are working with a range of partners to try to identify an alternative provider for the local community. Discussions are ongoing and we will share further updates as soon as they are available.
