Nothing happens without your say-so

You'll always get a written estimate first

If you need treatment, you get a clear written estimate before anything goes ahead.

Time to think it over, no pressure, and no surprise bills. We sort what matters most first and phase the rest so it stays manageable.

Flexible options for bigger treatment

HUMM

Not sure what works for you? Just ask. We'll talk it through and find a way that fits your budget.

Using Super For Essential Treatment

For significant, medically necessary treatment, the ATO may allow early access to your super on compassionate grounds, for example to help relieve chronic dental pain when other funding is not available. It does not cover cosmetic treatment. If it may be relevant to you, we can prepare the clinical report the ATO requires and point you to a licensed provider who manages the application. We never need your myGov details.

Money questions

Good to know

Do I need private health insurance to come?

Not at all. We welcome everyone, with or without cover. If you're not insured, we'll tell you the cost up front so there are no surprises.

What does the first visit cost?

Your first visit is the New Patient Comprehensive Care Visit, one flat price with everything included. We can process eligible health-fund claims on the spot through HICAPS. Your rebate and out-of-pocket cost depend on your fund, policy and level of cover. We'll always give you the price before you book.

What if I can't pay for treatment all at once?

We offer payment plans through HUMM and Fund My Dental, and accept all major credit cards, so larger treatment can be spread out.

Will I know the cost before any treatment?

Always. You'll get a clear written estimate before anything goes ahead, with time to think it over.
