Paragraph 24 Domiciliary visits

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

A dentist shall visit and treat a patient whose condition so requires at the place at which the patient normally resides or is temporarily resident provided that such place is not more than 5 miles from his practice premises, or in the case of a dentist who provides general dental services at a mobile surgery only, from any of the places regularly visited by him.
