North Brisbane Dental Clinic

Financial Info

Here at North Brisbane Dental Clinic, we hear time and time again that people are frustrated with dentists not being crystal clear about fees. Indeed, some people with general anxiety around dentists will tell us they're anxious about being in pain, but also anxious about what the bill is going to be. Dental treatment is very much catered to the individual, so it's difficult to give exact quotes for treatment before we've seen you. Once you've seen one of our dentists for an examination, you will be given an itemised quote so you can see exactly how much every step of your treatment is going to cost. If you have private health insurance, we will also be able to link up with your health fund and let you know in advance how much they will cover, so then you know ahead of time how much you will be out of pocket for your treatment.

Below are some indicative prices for some dental services. You will note we have provided a price range for each procedure. This is because the prices vary depending on several factors eg the specifics of your particular case, how long your dentist spends with you, how complex your procedure is. If you would like an exact quote, please book in with one of our dentists for a consultation. Once we've seen you and discussed what treatment, if any, we recommend for you, we can be specific about costs. We offer complimentary consultations for implants, braces and invisalign. All other consultations are $50 - $60 depending on how long your dentist spends with you and health fund rebates.

Examinations, Cleans, XRays and Fluoride treatments vary in price. The cost of these depends on the age of the patient and private health funds / medicare. To find out more, please phone our friendly reception staff on 3632 8100 with your details so we can give you an accurate quote.

Once you have a treatment plan with detailed quote from your dentist, you're on your way to healthier teeth! If you are concerned about your ability to pay for treatment, please speak with one of our friendly front office team members to discuss payment plans.

We will always provide a written quote for treatment prior to getting started so that financial plans can be made.We offer a number of financial solutions to assist patients wishing to proceed with treatment. We are proud to be an unrestricted health fund provider, which means we accept all Australian private health funds. 

Dental Treatment Under Medicare

If your child is 17 years or under, and you receive family tax benefit A, they will be eligible for bulk billed dental treatment under the medicare Child Dental Benefits Scheme. If you're not sure if your child is eligible, please phone us on 36328100 and we can look up medicare for you. If you are 18 years or over, medicare will not fund any dental treatment, which means we are unable to bulk bill any dental treatment for adults. This is not our choice, but is the rule of the current health system in Australia.

Cancellation Policy

If you have booked an appointment with us, you will receive a confirmation text 72 hours prior to your appointment. If you're unable to attend, please try to give us at least 24 hours notice. If you fail to give 24 hours notice, you may be charged a $100 cancellation fee.
