Good oral health starts young with the very first tooth. Ensuring that your little one develops good oral health and hygiene from an early age is the best way to take care of their overall health in the long run. Our friendly, supportive team is here to ensure your little one’s smile is healthy from day one, and that they become accustomed (and unafraid) of the dentist from an early age.
In our Wollongong and Shellharbour practices, we offer specialised dental and orthodontic treatment to lay the foundation for a lifelong healthy smile for your kids. Our enthusiastic team strives to ensure your family’s visit to the dentist is something to look forward to, both in terms of individualised care and a welcoming environment.
To help make your visit easier, we proudly offer:
Bulk billing for eligible services under the Medicare Dental Benefits Schedule
GAP FREE or $99 check-ups, clean and fluoride treatment for kids under 12
Flexible payment plans for Specialist Orthodontic treatment
After school and weekend appointments available
A large number of our patients come from families who we have seen for many years, and we are always delighted to welcome young people into the practice. We work hard to make sure that visits to the dentists are stress-free and smooth for all involved. It is our key focus to make the best in dental health and hygiene available to everyone who comes into our practices.
The CDBS is a scheme run by Medicare that allows eligible families to have access to a benefit of $1,000 over a two-calendar year period. At our practice, we bulk bill under the CDBS, meaning your kids can receive the CDBS-covered treatments at no cost to you.
The CDBS provides individual benefits for a range of services including:
Examinations
X-Rays
Cleaning
Fissure sealing
Fillings
Root canals
Extractions
To be eligible, a child must be aged between 2-17 years and their family must receive Family Tax Benefit Part A or a relevant Australian Government payment.
Families can check whether their child is eligible for the CDBS by contacting the Department of Human Services. General information about the program can also be found on the Department of Human Services website.
FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THE CDBS, VISIT THE HUMAN SERVICES WEBSITE OR CALL OUR FRIENDLY FRONT OFFICE TEAM.
With our consultations, we’ll assess your current oral hygiene and health, and tailor a plan for any necessary treatment. We offer this service so that you can make the judgment as to whether you think that we would be a good fit for you and your family.
With years of experience in the practice, we know that choosing to pursue dental treatments is an investment for both children and adults. Regardless of your need or query, our dentists are here to answer any questions you might have regarding the best possible general and orthodontic solutions for your family.
