Mr. Fisher: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many NHS dentists were employed in Stoke-on-Trent in each of the last five years. [213056]

Ms Rosie Winterton: The table shows the number of dentists employed in Stoke-on-Trent in each of the last five years.
Stoke-on-TrentNumber of dentists
200088
200190
200288
200390
200496

The figures are based on the numbers of dentists with open general dental service or personal dental service contracts in the North Stoke Primary Care Trust area and the South Stoke Primary Care Trust area.

Mr. Fisher: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many dentists have started work full-time for the NHS in Stoke-on-Trent since the inception of the Returning to Dentistry campaign. [213074]

Ms Rosie Winterton: Eleven dentists (personal dental service or general dental service) have started working in Stoke-on-Trent since July 2004.

Mr. Edward Davey: To ask the Secretary of State for Health (1) what percentage of dentists in Kingston and Surbiton stopped taking NHS patients in each year since 1997; [213545]

(2) what percentage of dentists in London stopped taking NHS patients in each year since 1997, broken down by parliamentary constituency. [213546]

Ms Rosie Winterton: The majority of dental practices treat both private and national health service patients under an open" contract with a primary care trust. The Office of Fair Trading report The private dentistry market in the UK", published in March 2003 estimated that out of 11,000 dental practices about 210 are private. The table shows by London constituency the numbers of dentists who stopped doing general or personal dental service work in England and Wales during the year as a percentage of the total number of dentists for the years 1997 to 2004. These figures do not include dentists who moved to other areas and continued to work in the general or personal dental services. The dentists could have ceased doing NHS work for a number of different reasons, for example, retirement or to take a short-term absence, apart from the reason that the dentist only wished to treat private patients. New contractual arrangements, which we are to introduce by April 2006, are intended to make NHS dentistry more attractive to dentists.
