The purpose of this PIN is to notify the market of a forthcoming procurement and to invite potential providers to attend a Virtual Market Engagement Event for the Provision of Intermediate Minor Oral Surgery (IMOS) Dental Services including treatment under Conscious Sedation in Shropshire and Staffordshire (Lot 1: Shrewsbury).

The procurement will seek to appoint a provider(s) that can deliver Intermediate Minor Oral Surgery (IMOS) Dental Services, including treatment under Conscious Sedation.

The service is aimed at those patients who require Level 2 care – that is procedural and/or patient complexity requiring a clinician with enhanced skills and experience who may or may not be on the specialist register.

The specialty of Oral Surgery (OS) deals with the diagnosis and management of pathology of the mouth and jaws that requires surgical intervention. Oral Surgery involves the treatment of children, adolescents and adults, and the management of dentally anxious and/or medically complex patients. Oral Surgery care is provided by Oral Surgeons and by Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons as the clinical competencies of these two specialties overlap.

The service will be delivered under an NHS England Personal Dental Service (PDS) Agreement

• Proposed contract length: 7 years + up to further 3 years extension (depending upon satisfactory annual performance reviews) = 10 years
