Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can the general public use a government dental clinic?
The Department of Health states that the general public may use the dental general public sessions, whose scope is relief of pain and tooth extraction (one tooth per visit), at designated clinics only.

How do I register for a general public session?
The department states that an online registration system launched on 30 December 2024 and the former "preliminary registration" ended the same day: nobody queues at a clinic for a disc any more, and quotas are allocated by computer ballot.
