Medicare – Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS)
Wondering “Is the dentist free for kids in Australia?”
If your child is aged 2–17 years, they may qualify for the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS), which provides up to $1,000 in dental care every two years at participating private clinics like ours.
This includes essential treatments such as check-ups, cleaning, fillings, and extractions. Belleview Dental proudly bulk bills eligible patients under this program — meaning no out-of-pocket costs for you.
To confirm eligibility, visit the Medicare Australia website or ask our friendly front desk for assistance.
Making Your Child’s Visit Comfortable
We know parents often wonder how to make a child’s first dentist visit easy and stress-free. Here’s how we make sure your child enjoys every moment:
Positive Communication
We avoid scary words like “pain” or “needle” and use calm, friendly language.
Familiarisation
Kids are shown the tools and chair before any treatment begins to make them feel safe.
Tell-Show-Do Approach
We explain and demonstrate everything before doing it, helping kids build trust.
Short, Fun Visits
The average first appointment lasts about 30 minutes — focused on comfort, not treatment.
Latest Dental Technology for Kids – Guided Biofilm Therapy
We use advanced Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) for a gentle, thorough clean. This modern approach removes plaque using air, water, and fine powder — no scraping or discomfort. It’s ideal for children and sensitive patients who want a painless experience with visible results.
