Dental Payment Options
Options to settle your account
We accept dental payments on the day of treatment by:
- Cash
- Personal cheque
- Credit card
- Interest-free payment plans

We require an upfront payment for any complex treatment plans. Following your initial examination, we will issue estimates on dental work needed and associated items and costs.

Health Funds
We believe your health care should be your choice and have chosen not to become a “Preferred Provider”. All of our invoices and estimates use the Australian Dental Association schedule of items so you may claim with any Australian health fund. We offer the HICAPS claim system to facilitate benefits from your fund and minimise the work you have to do to claim your rebate.
Child Dental Benefits Schedule
The Commonwealth Government has established the Child Dental Benefits Schedule for eligible families to provide financial support for basic dental services for children aged 0–17.
You are eligible if: your child is aged between 0–17 years on any one day of the calendar year, you receive, or their family, guardian or carer receives, certain government benefits such as Family Tax Benefit Part A for at least part of the calendar year, and you are eligible for Medicare.
