Recruitment and retention

Recruitment and retention in NHS dentistry, although not a new problem, is becoming an ever-increasing area of concern in the UK. With pre-existing problems which were only exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the NHS is now facing a mass exodus of dental professionals who are either switching to private, or leaving the profession entirely through early retirement or a change in career. This collection aims to bring together content which highlights, discusses and tackles the recruitment and retention crisis.
