Dentists warn patients will feel pain of hygiene changes
SCOTTISH dentists are warning that patients' costs will rise and there will be hundreds fewer dentists because of new hygiene rules.
They say regulations requiring them to have separate facilities for cleaning equipment will mean surgeries will have to be closed to be turned into sterilisation rooms.
Dentists in buildings which cannot be altered may have to close because of the costs of moving, they warn. One dentist in Inverness has already shut up shop.
