The Australian Government has introduced the Medicare Teen Dental Plan to help cover the cost of an annual preventative dental check for eligible teenagers aged 12 to 17.

If you are eligible, you will receive a voucher in the mail and this can be used to cover the fees for an oral examination, x-rays if required, scaling and polishing teeth, and some other preventative services such as fluoride treatment.

We will bulk-bill the patient with the medicare voucher for a check-up visit.

Additional treatments such as fillings, extractions etc will be billed separately.

For more information, please contact Medicare.
