Health Funds, Medicare & Payment Options
We believe dental care should be transparent, accessible, and manageable. Below you will find comprehensive information regarding private health insurance, government dental benefits for children, and payment arrangements available at Norwest Dental Care.
Private Health Funds
We accept all major Australian private health funds. Health fund rebates and annual limits depend on your individual fund and level of cover. We recommend contacting your health fund prior to treatment to confirm your available benefits.
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.
