The BDA has called on the Scottish Health Department to reconsider criteria that deem some 30 per cent of practices providing NHS services as not committed to the NHS.
The criteria mean these practices are not eligible to receive the full general dental practice allowance or rent reimbursements from NHS Scotland.
