General description

The information presented here shows NHS activity by quarter.

Courses of Treatment: The difference between the annual and quarterly figures is that the annual figures take account of late submissions of FP17 forms by dentists to NHS Dental Services, whereas the quarterly figures do not. Information on any NHS dental work completed by an NHS dentist is submitted to NHS Dental Services for payment on an FP17 form, the majority of which are electronic submissions. Furthermore, the term 'Claims for Treatment' was replaced by 'Courses of Treatment' in the annual dental release in August. The two terms are interchangeable and refer to the same construct, however it was decided to use 'Courses of Treatment' to allow comparisons to be made with the other UK countries and to avoid confusion. The courses of treatment data is comparable to the claims for treatment data previously.

Data collection and calculation

The data is derived from dental activity forms submitted for payment and processed by NHS Business Services Authority Dental Services.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had a significant impact on the way dental services have been provided in Wales and therefore affect the data collected from the last quarter of the financial year 2019-20 and the full financial year 2020-21 onwards.

From 1st April 2019 health service provision for residents of Bridgend local authority moved from Abertawe Bro Morgannwg to Cwm Taf. For more information see the joint statement from Cwm Taf and Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Boards (see weblinks). The health board names have changed with Cwm Taf University Health Board becoming Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board and Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board becoming Swansea Bay University Health Board. A link to the statement from the minister for health and social service can be found in the weblinks section.
