The scheme provides for a contribution towards the cost of a scale and polish or periodontal treatment, in addition to the free annual examination.

If the person concerned is the holder of a Medical Card, they should contact their local HSE office which will advise on entitlements under the HSE scheme.  

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
