NHS England (NHSE) South West, on behalf of the Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) in the South West region, are recommissioning NHS Tier 2 Oral Surgery Services across the South West and seek to determine the level of market interest in the provision of these services. NHSE are in the early stages of engagement and invite potential providers to attend a series of initial market engagement events, taking place across the region in November and December 2023.

Oral surgery deals with the diagnosis and management of pathology of the mouth and jaws that requires surgical intervention. It involves the treatment of children, adolescents and adults, and the management of dentally anxious and medically complex patients.
