This morning's The Irish Timescontains a frightening report by Mr. Paul Cullen relating to an audit report into orthodontic treatment in Dublin between 1999 and 2002. The report was completed in 2015 but has still not been published. Its findings may lead to 7,500 people having their treatments checked. Some may even be recalled up to ten years after their treatments. All sorts of damage have been suggested, including braces being left in for too long, bleeding gums and other conditions arising out of treatment. Does the HSE plan to publish the report? Given that we are a year on from the revelations at CervicalCheck and the commitment to open disclosure, when will those who have been affected by this issue be informed that they have been affected?
