WHAT IS A CHILDREN'S DENTIST?

Paediatric dentistry is a specialty of dentistry that focuses on the oral health and unique needs of young people. Our dental team is made up of highly experienced and qualified staff, sharing a passion for good oral health and a love for working with children.  We are dedicated to providing a high quality of dental care for all children. We focus strongly on preventative dentistry, providing educational advice and dental awareness. We believe that starting regular dental visits at a young age is imperative for forming good dental habits that will see your child through to adult hood.

CHILD DENTAL BENEFITS SCHEDULE

We are excited to announce our participation in the Child Dental Benefits Scheme, which provides eligible children with $1026 over 2 years. The scheme that is being federally funded allows families to afford best possible dental treatment, without the financial stress.
