Everyone needs to have oral health available...toothache ache pain is very close to child birth pain and they do a fantastic job 👏 🙂 👍

Because we only have one dentist and they aren’t able to take anymore NHS patients. Something needs to be done!

I agree the building should not be left derelict and should be sold to another dentist willing to take over all patients. I have been with this practice for over 55 yrs.

I attend this dentist and since the announcement of the closure I have been looking for an nhs practice but there are none not even within a half hour travelling distance.

Everyone should have access to NHS dental care

Im signing because people of Shildon and surrounding area need this dentist ! Where will they go if this closes, especially the elderly? This dentist needs to stop open

I believe local access to high quality dental care is essential. Closing practices reduces access to dental care and increases health inequality

I have attended this dentist for many years and have built in a trusting relationship after many years of fear of dentists. Why BUPA would di this is beyond me, brilliant professional staff, and the area needs this practice to stay open, for adults and children too.

I think it’s important

Becky Barker (Darlington, 2023-05-08)

I have used this dentist for years and found my dentist very good!
With me being disabled they cater for my needs by seeing me downstairs!
Please don’t close!

Bente Jane Thornton (Newton Aycliffe, 2023-05-08)

The nation is being doomed to poor dental health yet Shildons closure cannot be justified.

We desperately need more dentist in Shildon and ones that except nhs patients it’s totally unacceptable to leave a town with only one practice which will undoubtedly close at some point in the future.

Simon Bowker (Newton Aycliffe , 2023-05-11)

#309

I have been a customer for more than 70 years and can't find a another dentist. It will be bad for people living in Shildon who can not afford to go private.

Kenneth Hodgson (Shildon, 2023-05-12)

There is already a desperate need in the Shildon area for an NHS dentist. Taking the excellent Oasis surgery away will have a severe impact on the lives of many families.

David Horsley (Newton Aycliffe , 2023-05-12)

#315

I'm half the way through treatment and have been told I won't have a dentist anymore after June. I was referred to a specialist which is costing me a lot of money but need two Teeth crowned after it is done. My dentist will be closed by then. I'm retired and affording private isn't really an option however what choice have I got. I've gone to the same dentist in Shildon for over 30 years. Disgusting treatment getting a text saying they are closing.

Kathleen Barber (Durham, 2023-05-12)

#317

With an already declining number of dentists in the area it is of utmost importance we don't lose another.

Lynda Gardiner (Hexham, 2023-05-13)

#326

NHS dentistry is in crisis and the closure of 2x local dentists will make getting NHS treatment impossible for many.

This needs action.

Paul Short (Bishop Auckland, 2023-05-13)

#328

Access to a dentist and affordable dental care is a fundamental basic right. Poor oral health has also been linked to poor heart health. It's an embarrassment that in the 6th richest economy in the world many don't have access to dental care. This can't be allowed to go on or be exacerbated.

Jayne Strange (Deal, 2023-05-13)

#330

We need more surgery not less

Graeme Bryan (Durham , 2023-05-14)

My Dentist is closing and no NHS available anywhere near

Richard Morrell (Bishop Auckland, 2023-05-14)

#332

We need NHS dentists for all. It is not acceptable to have to travel miles for dental treatment, nor is it acceptable to pay astronomical costs if you have to go private.

Kelly Ambrosini (Shildon, 2023-05-14)

We desperately need to keep this dentist open. It has over 20000 patients and has had offers from other dentists to take it over and buy the equipment but has been refused!!!

Julie Teasdale (Durham, 2023-05-15)

#343

We need to keep this practice open. I've been going to this dentist since I was a child over 50 years. Rediculous to leave patients with no NHS dentist. Shame about the staff to. Some have worked there for years

Nicola Mason (Newton Aycliffe , 2023-05-16)

#344

We need to keep this practice open, ive been going here since i was a child and now my 3 children and partner go here aswel. Since they announced the closure ive tried ringing different practices and had no luck at all its impossible to find a dentist to take on 1 person never mind 5.

Rachael Toase (Newton aycliffe , 2023-05-16)

I would like to keep this dentist as an NHS as its always had such friendly staff .

Rumbold Robin (Durham, 2023-05-23)

#351

I have this dentist in Shildon my whole life, I used to live in Shildon years ago and stayed with the practice when I moved to Bishop Auckland. It would have been more convenient to use a Bishop Auckland practice, this never once crossed my mind due the absolutely first class service I have always received. All the staff from reception, dental nurses to the dentists have always provided a professional service, always so friendly and helpful with nothing too much trouble. If this dental practice were to close I think it would be a tremendous loss to the town and surrounding area with many people left without a dental service at all. I would personally be devastated if the Shildon dental practice were to close

Stephen Matthews (Bishop Auckland, 2023-05-23)

We need to keep services in nhs that we pay for

Leanne Grimes (Shildon, 2023-05-23)
