Andalusian children’s dental plan
Andalusian children's dental plan
We provide dental assistance services to the youngest members of the house
Boys and girls between 6 and 15 years old protected by the Public Health System of Andalusia have the right to receive basic dental care and certain special treatments free of charge.
What does children’s oral care cover?
The assistance includes an annual review where information is provided on oral hygiene standards, diets, etc., with examination and recognition of the permanent dentition and optional follow-up in cases where it is advisable.
The provision of basic dental care and special treatments will begin on January 1 of the year in which the beneficiaries turn 6 years old and will end on December 31 of the year in which they turn 15 years old.
Always according to the criteria of each dentist, the following can be performed:
- Sealing fissures or pits in healthy permanent teeth that will prevent the appearance of cavities.
- Obturation in permanent teeth (fillings) when cavities already exist.
- More appropriate treatment of pulp lesions.
- Extraction of temporary teeth (baby teeth).
- Extraction of a permanent tooth, as long as, under the discretion of your primary dentist, there is no other more conservative treatment.
- Tartrectomy (cleaning), when calculus and/or extrinsic pigmentation is detected in permanent dentition.
- Care may also cover certain special treatments for trauma or malformations of the canine incisor teeth.
The following special treatments are excluded:
- Treatments for trauma to the canine incisor group when there is a third person obliged to respond for said treatment.
- Orthodontic treatments, without prejudice to what is contemplated in dental care in special situations.
- Restorative treatments in temporary dentition.
The exclusion extends to radiological examinations and other means of diagnosis, as well as any previous or necessary intervention to carry them out, such as extractions, including intraosseous, in the case of orthodontics.
How to request oral care?
It is possible to freely choose your primary dentist from the list of dentists available each year. During the month of December, only people belonging to the public sector can be chosen as primary dentist.
