This is the medical and general consent form that allows Chermside Family Dental to provide dental care to your child at Chermside Early Education Centre.
The treatment will include a dental examination (check-up), clean and remineralising application (calcium treatment), if necessary.
The service is bulk-billed for eligible families under the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Scheme (CDBS). CDBS provides eligible children aged 0-17 years with $1132 funding for dental care, every two years. If you receive Family Tax Benefit A then you are likely eligible. Chermside Family Dental will also confirm your child’s eligibility.
If your child is not eligible for CDBS, Chermside Family Dental will contact you to advise you. We can provide treatment for your child at a private fee, which you may claim through your health fund. We are preferred providers for Medibank Private, BUPA, NIB and HCF.
Having this service at Chermside EEC, in a familiar environment, makes your child comfortable and gives them a positive dental experience, with the company of their peers.
After their visit, Chermside Family Dental will email you a Dental Report and invoice. We will advise if your child requires further dental care.
We highly recommend this program as maintaining your child’s dental and oral health is extremely important to us.
If you require any further information, please feel free to contact Chermside Family Dental on 33503530 or by the Contact Us on our website. Our email is reception@chermsidefamilydental.com.au
