Regulation 4 Dental appliances
Where an Authority—
supplies a person at his request with a dental appliance of a more expensive type than that which is clinically necessary for dental fitness, or
repairs such a dental appliance at a cost in excess of the cost of repairing a dental appliance which is so clinically necessary,
that Authority may make and recover from the person to or for whom such a dental appliance is supplied or repaired, a charge equal to the difference between the cost of supplying or repairing such a dental appliance and the cost of supplying or repairing such dental appliance as is clinically necessary.
Where an Authority supplies a dental appliance the person supplied or a person on his behalf, shall be liable to pay to the Authority the charges authorised by the Act of 1951 as varied by section 1 of the Act of 1961 or by regulations made under section 2 of the Act of 1961.
