'Traffic light' map of England showing the distribution of dentists per 1,000 people
by PCT as at 31 December 2002, classified into four classes: 0–0.2 (red = serious
shortage of NHS dentists), 0.2–0.3 (dark orange-yellow = shortage of NHS dentists),
0.3–0.4 (light orange-yellow = some shortage of NHS dentists) and 0.4–1 dentist per
1,000 population (green = low, but acceptable or good number of dentists). Note the
location of South Cambridgeshire PCT, which has a very low dentist per 1,000 population
figure of 0.16, in relation to Cambridge City and Royston, Buntingford and Bishop's
Stortford PCTs, which both have a dentist per 1,000 population figure of more than
0.6.
