Preventing Wrong Tooth Extraction in Primary Care Oral Surgery: LocSSIPs - Key Aspects of Implementation for Achieving and Sustaining Compliance.

The success of Local Safety Standards for Invasive Procedures (LocSSIPs) in preventing wrong tooth extraction and other patient safety incidents is based on sustained staff compliance from the outset, ahead of implementation. This paper (the second of two on the topic of LocSSIPs) aims to equip primary care dental practitioners with key practical solutions to implement LocSSIPs successfully and sustainably, and the leadership knowledge to create a long-term, safe, patient-centred and just service.
