Don’t let your dental extras disappear on you

The cost of your next dental check-up could be covered

Did you know that as a health fund member, the cost of your next dental check-up could be covered by your extras?

That means no out-of-pocket costs* for you to pay. We will process your rebate immediately and you can claim on the same day as your treatment.

But now’s the time to book, as most health fund benefits reset on January 1.

Every year, many of our patients miss out on dental extras they’ve already paid for by failing to use them before the reset – we wouldn’t want you to be one of them!

Don’t let your dental extras disappear on you – now’s the perfect time to put them to good use with a comprehensive check-up and clean.

Why a dental check-up is worth your time

Why a dental check-up is worth your time

A dental check-up every six months is vital to keep your oral health on track. It also lets us spot any issues before they can become bigger (and potentially expensive) problems.

During your check-up, we’ll perform a thorough inspection of your teeth and gums, and be on the lookout for signs of common issues such as:

  • Cavities
  • Tooth decay
  • Sensitivity
  • Gum disease

Your appointment will also include a professional clean, scale and floss and the opportunity to discuss any additional concerns you might have.

What you may not know is…

The benefits of regular check-ups extend well beyond a healthy smile. Taking good care of your teeth and gums is also linked to better overall health. You can find more information about this link here.

The best way to find out exactly what your dental cover includes is to log in to your health fund member account and check your policy details. Many dental insurance plans include gap-free* check-ups as part of your dental cover.
