Prices for dental services continue to rise, making access to qualified treatment more difficult, especially for retirees. In response, the Ministry of Health of Kazakhstan has provided the option to use Lump-Sum Pension Payments (LPP) to finance several high-cost medical procedures, including dental treatment.
