Mae timau clinigol wedi mynegi cryn ddiddordeb ac mae pob un o'r saith bwrdd iechyd yn cymryd rhan. O fis Ionawr eleni, bydd 23 o bractisau deintyddol (Atodiad 1) a gafodd eu dewis o blith y ceisiadau niferus a ddaeth i law yn treialu'r offeryn asesu anghenion a risg. Mae'r wybodaeth hon yn cael ei defnyddio i gynllunio gofal, rhoi cyngor ataliol wedi'i deilwra i’r unigolyn a chytuno ar y bwlch priodol rhwng galw cleifion yn ôl â'r cleifion hynny eu hunain. Mae hefyd yn helpu i wella mynediad a gwneud defnydd o'r tîm deintyddol cyfan. Rydym yn bwriadu ymestyn y rhaglen a dulliau gweithio newydd i ragor o dimau yn ystod 2018 a gwneud gwelliannau ar raddfa fwy ym mhob cwr o Gymru.
There has been considerable interest from clinical teams and all seven health boards are participating. From January this year 23 dental practices (Annex 1) selected from the many that applied are testing the use of the needs and risk assessment tool. This information is being used to plan care, give personalised preventive advice and agree appropriate recall intervals with patients. It is also facilitating improving access and making use of the whole dental practice team. We intend to expand the programme and new ways of working to more teams during 2018 and to scale up improvement throughout Wales.
