Oral surgery deals with the diagnosis and management of pathology of the mouth and jaws that requires surgical intervention.

Provision of Sedation could be considered in exceptional circumstances, in accordance with the Guidance for Commissioning Sedation for Dental Services in Primary Care 2017.

Performers will need to be accredited to provide the services to a Level 2 standard.

Further information on accreditation can be found in the commissioning guide: https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/guidance-for-the-accreditation-of-performers-of-level-2-complexity-care-dec-2018.pdf It is anticipated that evidence will need to be submitted as part of the tender document.
