Petition Action

Change the pay of a qualified dental nurse

Petition Details

We would like the government to change a dental nurses wage. Estimated at just £9.50 per hour, we have all qualified with higher education and certified with a diploma.
The cost of living has increased and this pay does not match to be able to live. The wage should be from at least £14.00 per hour.

Additional Information

For the hardwork of studying and the knowledge that is learnt through this time is just as much knowledge as what a dentist needs to have. There is not enough recognition for dental nurses for what they do.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

The Government does not set pay for dental nurses, so decisions about pay for dental nurses are a matter for their employer, not the UK Government or Parliament.
