Manx Care says many providers are not delivering as 4,000 Isle of Man patients wait to see dentist.
An overhaul of NHS dental contracts on the Isle of Man is needed to help tackle growing waiting lists, Manx Care has said.
Manx Care chief executive Teresa Cope said many dental practices were "under-delivering against their contracts" because of limited capacity.At Manx Care's board meeting this month, figures revealed the number of patients on the waiting list had increased by 500 since April.NHS dental care contracts - with targets set for the number of procedures to be carried out - are awarded to a number of independent practices across the Isle of Man.
He admitted Manx Care's budget was "not enough to commission the care that's needed", and said a business case would be put to the Department of Health and Social Care for further funding to address the growing problem.
