Challenges Relating to the Provision of Dentistry Services: Discussion

Mr. Fintan Hourihan:
The HSE gathers that information and I know it has been asked for in parliamentary questions. That information is out there. I am not sure what happens if a child commences treatment before the age of 16; he or she might continue it. The HSE would say it probably does not have the necessary resources to see every child it wants to see even before he or she reaches his or her 16th birthday.
