The Department of Health in England has published guidance to PCTs on single-use instruments for endodontic procedures.

The BDA has issued a statement in response from Lester Ellman, Chair of the General Dental Practice Committee (GDPC)

"We're disappointed that central additional funding is not going to be made available to compensate practitioners who will be faced with extra costs. Practitioners will therefore be expected to negotiate for the necessary funding with hard-pressed PCTs"
