In principle only.
In practice: how much have you spent on dentist bills in the past year?
- CraigJPerry 6y agoChild birth. Heart attack. Broken leg. Brain tumour. Flu. It’s free in practice.
- glaberficken 6y agoYes, most things are free in practice. Just so happens that something critical for day to day general health and well-being (dental health) is not. It's not by accident that Portugal has oral health on par with the poorest Eastern European countries.
