The British Dental Guild is maintaining the existing rate for 2013/14, which is £270 per session, or three and a half hours. The amount has been frozen at the 2012/13 rate.
Because of the modern complexities of dentistry in the UK, in recent years the Guild has decided not to separate the rate into a practice expense and a loss of earning component, but recommended that practitioners use their individual practice expenses to determine this, or the latest NHS IC or HMRC information on expenses ratios.
The treasurer of the British Dental Guild is Howard Jones. Howard can be contacted at: dentalguild@aol.com.
