Resources

To support clinicians that may not have worked within the full Units of Dental Activity (UDA) system for some time, our NHSBSA Clinical Advisors have created a presentation to be used as further guidance now that the DCR programme has closed.

The intended use of this presentation is for Clinicians as they transition from the DCR programme to the UDA system. It may not be accessible to all users. If a more accessible version is required, contact nhsbsa.dentalcontractreform@nhs.net.

The presentation is in a PowerPoint slideshow format and will start automatically when you open it. You may need to use the onward arrow in the slideshow to move the slideshow on at the appropriate time.
