Child Dental Benefits Schedule

Introduced at the beginning of 2014, the Child Dental Benefit Scheme (CDBS) is a new dental initiative by the Australian Government of Health covering children aged between 2 and 17.

The scheme provides $1000.00 worth of basic dental treatments, including examinations, x-rays, cleaning, fissure sealants, fillings, root canal treatments and extractions. The benefit can be used over two consecutive calendar years, however eligibility must be obtained each year and the benefit cannot be transferred to other children or adults.

Eligibility is based on household income; children from families which receive Family Tax Benefit Part A or receive an Australian Government payment from the list available at humanservices.gov.au/childdental. Checking eligibility is easy. Simply contact Medicare on 132011 or visit the website above.

If your child is eligible, take full advantage of the scheme by booking an appointment at one of our clinics across Sydney.
