LIBERAL Democrats in Gateshead and Washington have launched a survey of dentists throughout the area.
The move was sparked by concerns about the future of the service once new contracts for dentists are introduced in April.
The survey is being co-ordinated by Low Fell Councillor Frank Hindle who fought the Gateshead East and Washington West constituency at the last general election.
"With the advent of the new NHS contract for dentists from 1st April," said Cllr Hindle, there is concern over the future level of services that will be available through the NHS.
"We are trying to get a picture of the likely situation in the area in the near future."
