Care and treatment options

What to expect

1

Listen and assess

We discuss your concerns, dental history, general health and any medicines that may affect care.

2

Examine and investigate

Your dentist examines the teeth, gums, bite and soft tissues and may recommend diagnostic images.

3

Discuss your options

You receive an explanation of findings, reasonable options, likely fees, limitations and what may happen without treatment.

4

Plan and maintain

Care is staged according to clinical priority, with review intervals tailored to your oral-health needs.

Risks, limitations and alternatives

All dental procedures have limitations and potential risks. These depend on the condition being treated and may include sensitivity, discomfort, restoration wear or fracture, and the need for further treatment. Preventive care reduces risk but cannot guarantee that future dental problems will not occur.

Private health-fund rebates depend on your policy, waiting periods and annual limits. Please check your cover directly with your fund; HICAPS estimates are not a guarantee of payment.
