Question
Will the Welsh Government commit to ensuring that NHS Wales dental costs for patients do not increase for the remainder of this Senedd?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care
In the context of the current financial pressures, NHS dental charges will continue to be carefully reviewed to ensure they represent the best value for the public and the public purse.
NHS dental charges in Wales for treatment are lower than they are in England and many people are exempt from paying charges.
