This letter sets out new pay arrangements and terms and conditions for dentists employed within the salaried primary dental care services in England.
These reforms implement principles set out in Creating the Future – Modernising careers for salaried dentists in primary dental care and have been agreed in negotiations between the profession and NHS Employers acting on behalf of the Department of Health. They supersede the arrangements set out in the Terms and Conditions of Service for Administrative and Community Clinical Dental Officers of Regional and District Health Authorities (Health Boards) published in 1987 and known as the 'Red Book'.
