What they offer and how we will go
Dentists will offer to the beneficiaries one free cleaning per year. For example, if a beneficiary wants to visit a dentist for cleaning in December, then the next free cleaning can be done in December 2021.
The patient's visit to the dentist for cleaning will take place without any referral.
In its announcement, the Pancyprian Dental Association mentions what exactly will be offered to minor children, while at the same time it mentions the most probable dental procedures that the beneficiary may additionally need even if they will not be covered by GESS.

One visit per year to check the oral cavity and inform the beneficiary / parent / guardian about proper oral hygiene, proper eating habits of the child, avoiding caries, oral habits (finger, pacifier, etc.) addressing them.
This operation, it is noted, is very important, as it enables the diagnosis of pathological conditions of both the teeth and the gums, tongue, lips and in general the entire oral cavity. Taking into account many determining factors, it also enables the Dentist to assess the risk of caries and to recommend the frequency of visits.
