Finance and payment plans

We want your visit with us to be as easy and convenient as possible for you.

We’re always up-front with you about the costs involved with each visit, so there are never any surprises. Some common coverage options are:

Insurance

We are partners will major Health Funds, including: Medibank, PeopleCare, Teachers Health, Transport Health, GMF, HIF, nib, HBF, Latrobe Health, Frank Health Insurance, GMHBA, and all other health funds that participate in HICAPS, enabling you to claim your rebate on the spot to save you from time and hassle.

Denti-Care Payment Plans

We have simple payment plan options for treatment plans over $20,000 in value. With a deposit of 20%, the balance of the plan can be placed on a direct debit arrangement and paid weekly, fortnightly or monthly over a period of up to 24 months (2 years). These plans are simple and easy to understand and do not require a credit check and no interest charges if instalments are paid on time. This plan has only a $39 establishment fee, and a bank fee of 88c per deposit.

Medicare Child Dental Benefit Schedule (CDBS)

The Child Dental Benefit Schedule provides basic dental services to children aged between 2 and 17 years in January each year. The dental services include: examinations, X-rays, cleaning, fissure sealing, fillings, root canals, extractions and partial dentures. If your child is eligible, Medicare would have notified you with each child eligible for dental treatment totaling up to $1000 over 2 consecutive calendar years. There are criteria set by Medicare, and administered by Centrelink, which, to name just a few, tie in to family income, family tax benefit qualification, and having lodged your previous year’s tax return.
We can assist with calling to check your child’s availability for the benefits, and how much is remaining on their plan. Even if you have been to another dentist before, it’s part of our service to assist with these procedures for you.

Other Payment Options

If you don’t have coverage through the above-listed options, we also accept:

EFTPOS, Visa, MasterCard (with no credit card surcharges)

Amex (NOT ACCEPTED)

Our dedicated staff can help advise on any payment plan or
