    Just wondering if anyone knows when children are seen by the school dentist in primary school. My daughter was seen in Senior Infants and hasn't been seen since....now in 6th class. She moved schools in 4th class and I am wondering if maybe she has been lost in the system through the change as I presume they are seen more than once I primary school. Any help would be appreciated.

    It seems to depend on where you are:
    "Children in national school are screened on a regular basis, the frequency of which varies from area to area, and provided with preventive and other necessary care as required. The classes targeted for school screening vary among the 32 Local Health Offices (LHOs). "
    List of LHOs here:
