Bulk billing for eligible kids

We bulk bill eligible children under the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS). Here's how it works, in plain words.

How the CDBS works

How bulk billing works, in three steps

The Child Dental Benefits Schedule is an Australian Government scheme that helps families with the cost of basic dental care for kids.

  1. Step 1: Check if your child is eligible

    Services Australia decides eligibility. It covers children aged 0 to 17 who are eligible for Medicare and whose families receive certain government payments, such as Family Tax Benefit Part A.

  2. Step 2: Bring their Medicare card

    Bring your child's Medicare card to the appointment and let us know you'd like to use the CDBS.

  3. Step 3: Eligible treatment is bulk billed

    For eligible children, eligible treatment is bulk billed. Benefits are capped over two calendar years, so ask us any time about what's covered.

Not eligible?

Every child is still welcome here

If your child isn't eligible for the CDBS, they're just as welcome. Ask us about fees when you call to book, and we'll happily explain them.
