Medicare & Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS)

Eligible children and teenagers may be able to access dental benefits through the Australian Government’s Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS), administered through Medicare. CDBS can help cover specified basic dental services for eligible children aged 0–17, subject to eligibility, available Commonwealth benefit limits, and applicable service restrictions.

Medicare does not generally provide dental benefits for adult dental treatment. Please speak with our reception team to check whether your child is eligible and whether proposed treatments can be provided under the CDBS.
