An Onchan MHK's comments about the introduction of charges for dental check-ups are being questioned.
Peter Karran has branded the introduction of the charge 'an act of vandalism on public health'.
He claims it will discourage some people from going for a check-up, which could lead to more extensive - and therefore expensive - work in the future, if something is not caught early.
Isle of Man Dental Association Secretary Nigel Armstrong thinks the impact will be minimal:
Manx Care's 'Home First approach' sees high demand
Healthcare body publishes its annual report
Former church could be converted... back to church
It was added to the Protected Buildings Register in 1984
Manx Concert Brass heads west
