Except in emergencies, and subject to the legislative or regulatory provisions relating to occupational medical and social services, any dental surgeon who carries out a preventive dental service on behalf of a community is not entitled to provide curative care. He must refer the person he has recognised as ill to the attending dental surgeon or, if the patient does not have one, leave him free to choose one. This prescription also applies to a dental surgeon who provides a public screening consultation. However, he may provide treatment for :
1° Patients subject to the internship regime in an establishment with which he may be accredited as a dental surgeon;
2° Patients under the care of works, establishments and institutions authorised for this purpose, in the public interest, by the Minister for Health after obtaining the opinion of the Conseil national de l’ordre des chirurgiens-dentistes.
