PRSI only covers one checkup per calender year, nothing else.
This has been the case since January 2010, almost 4 years ago.
All dental practices will have pricelists for cleanings on their website&/in their practice, however it's usually better to have a PRSI checkup& be given an estimate for treatment; everyone varies depending on diet, oral hygiene, ect.

Thanks for the reply. I thought it covered the cost of some of the cleaning :-( we get nothing for PRSI now

For some stupid reason if you are self employed prsi doesn't cover it :mad:

Don't complain to your dentist, we are self employed too and have little or no PRSI benefits...:(
