Greenland Dental proudly supports Medicare’s Child Dental Benefit Schedule and bulk bills all services that are available through the schedule.
Medicare cover a range of kid’s dental services including examinations, x-rays, cleaning, fissure sealing, fillings, root canal treatments and extractions. Orthodontic or cosmetic treatment is not covered by this scheme.
For your children to be eligible you must be receiving Family Tax Benefit Part A or a relevant Australian Government payment. If your child is turning 2 or 18 at any time throughout the year, they will be eligible that year, for the full year, even when they are aged 1 or 18.
You can confirm your child’s eligibility and balance amount by accessing your Medicare online account at my.gov.au or calling the Medicare general enquiries line on 132 011.
Our Caboolture dental reception team can also check your child’s eligibility for you. Simply call our dental clinic on (07) 5495 4266 and we will find out for you within minutes.
