Lincolnshire is currently experiencing a growing trend of dentists moving from the NHS to private practice due to perceived inadequacies in NHS contracts.

Local healthcare representatives have called for contract reform to help retain NHS dental services in the region. This article was based on original research by lincolnshirelive.co.uk.
