Queues expected as dentist opens
Health managers are urging people in Lincolnshire to be patient if they want to register with a new NHS dentist.

Fen House Dental Practice in Spalding was holding a registration day on Saturday and was expecting a high demand for places.

The new practice is made possible because Spanish dentists are being employed to address a chronic shortage in the county.

Six dentists have been recruited by West Lincolnshire Primary Care Trust.

Trust managers said the dentists' English was excellent and that they were fully qualified to British standards.
