Child Dental Benefits Schedule
The Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) provides government-funded basic dental services for children. Services for basic dental treatment, such as check-ups, x-rays, fillings and extractions are included, however, high end services, such as orthodontic treatment are not. Eligibility is means tested using the same criteria as the previous Medicare Teen Dental Plan (MTDP), which requires receipt of Family Tax Benefit Part A or other certain government payments. To learn more, please contact us or visit the MyGov website.
No Private Health Insurance?
Patients with no Private Health Insurance will be charged the Marmion Dental Care scheduled fees for each procedure. Our dentists will discuss and provide all relevant estimate of costs at the consultation appointment or prior to commencing any treatment.
Please note that Dentists can only provide estimates based on their findings at the consultation stage. However, the mouth is a biological environment and different people react differently to treatment. As such, costs may vary if further complications occur when the procedure is being undertaken. Full payment is required on the day.
Patient Accounts
We require payment in full on the day of treatment unless prior arrangements have been made with our Manager.
We accept cash, cheque, EFTPOS and credit card facilities are available on site with no surcharge applied
