Maintaining regular dental care during childhood is paramount, as this leads to healthier teeth and smile into adulthood. At Emerald Dental Care, we offer Medicare Bulk-Bill for children aged between 2-17 years old.
The federal government contributes up to $1000 per child over two consecutive years, which covers general and preventative dental treatments including examinations, X-rays, cleaning, fissure sealants, fillings, extractions, as well as other dental services.
To find out if your child is eligible for treatment under the Child Dental Benefit Schedule, please fill out our form or contact us on (03) 8768 8466.
