The lack of NHS dentists is causing a huge problem on the Isle of Wight says the health watchdog, with some children having never had their teeth checked because they cannot access an NHS dentist
The chair of the health and social care scrutiny committee said, "It is plain that such inadequate levels of service and accessibility that now exists has the potential to put sick and vulnerable people in the community at unwarranted risk"
The Leader of the Isle of Wight council said it is important the committee exercises its statutory function to call to account – and confirmed there'll now be ongoing dialogue between the committee and the CCG.
