FAQs

Do you accept CDBS for kids dentistry?

Yes, we accept the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) for kids’ dentistry.

The Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) is a government program in Australia that provides eligible children with up to $1,052 in dental benefits over a two-year period. It covers essential dental services such as examinations, cleanings, fillings, and extractions, promoting oral health for children.

How often should I visit a dentist for a comprehensive check-up and clean?

It is generally recommended to visit a dentist for a comprehensive check-up and clean every six months. However, the frequency may vary depending on your individual oral health needs. Regular visits allow for early detection and therefore give dentists the ability to prevent dental issues. At Delacombe Family Dental, we accept all major health funds under HICAPS and are preferred providers for HCF. In addition, we also offer zero-interest, flexible payment plans (T&Cs apply) to ensure accessible and affordable dental care for our patients.

Do teeth cleanings hurt?

No, teeth cleanings are typically pain-free. During the cleaning process, your dentist will use a range of tools to remove plaque and tartar from your teeth and along the gumline. Some people may experience mild discomfort or sensitivity during the cleaning, but it is generally mild and well-tolerated. Our caring team will ensure your comfort throughout the procedure and are happy to address any concerns you may have.
