Cancer patients will receive financial aid for dental treatments starting next year, reports TV2.

Minister of Health Sophie Løhde said the government was working to repeal Section 166 of the Health Act to be more inclusive so that cancer patients with severe dental problems due to chemotherapy or other cancer-related treatments will be able to receive dental subsidies in 2024. In 2021, 75% of cancer patients who suffered from dental problems caused by chemotherapy declined financial subsidies.
