Petition Free dental visits for kids under the age of 18 years

GP visits are free for kids, but access to a dentist is just as important! Visits to the dentist are very expensive, which is why many kids don't visit a dentist regularly which can lead to tooth decay, gum disease, tooth loss, oral infections, oral cancer and more.

More details

Poor dental care can affect every part of your body because every part is interconnected. We can’t rely only on the Hospital Dental department which has a long waiting list, limited hours, and limited service. The Government should provide funding so all children under the age of 18 years can visit any dentist on the Island, at least twice a year, for free.
