We believe quality dental care should be accessible to everyone without causing financial stress. As part of our service, we’re committed to providing clear, upfront information about the cost of your care so that you can make informed decisions with confidence.
Before any treatment begins, your dentist will walk you through a tailored treatment plan, including a full breakdown of costs and payment options. We’ll explain what’s essential now, what can wait, and what your options are – so there are no nasty surprises or unexpected costs at the end of your consultation.
If you have private health insurance, we’ll also help you understand what’s covered and any out-of-pocket costs that may apply. Our team is here to answer any questions you have and support you in finding a solution that works for you.
In addition to cash, credit, and debit cards, we offer a range of payment options to suit your circumstances. We accept all health insurance providers, and if eligible, you can claim your child’s treatment through the Bulk Billed Dental Scheme.
