NHS examinations and recalls in Wales
NHS recall appointments are based on individual clinical risk and need. Some patients may need to attend more frequently, while patients with stable oral health may be recalled less often.
Welsh Government guidance currently provides free NHS dental examinations for people under 25 and people aged 60 or over. This does not necessarily mean that later X-rays or treatment are free.
