To ask His Majesty's Government what is the dental health patient enrolment waiting list in each NHS integrated care board in England.

The information requested is not held centrally. Patients in England are not registered with a National Health Service dental practice and there is no single waiting list, although many NHS dental practices do tend to see patients regularly, and may operate local waiting list arrangements. NHS dentists are required to keep their NHS.UK website profiles up to date, so that patients can find a dentist more easily. This includes information on whether they are accepting new patients.
