Dentures
When you’re missing teeth, your facial muscles can droop without their underlying support. This causes you to look older than you actually are. With modern dentures, you’ll not only be able to chew and speak normally, but also regain a more youthful appearance. Importantly, at Given Smile we don’t consider your dentures in isolation. Instead we treat them as one part of your total oral health solution.
Unlike regular dentures, implant supported dentures are securely locked-in-place by implants, which are inserted into either on the top or bottom jaw bone. They provide a more stable support, locking safely into place, giving greater comfort and the ability to eat foods that you may not have been able to eat before.
Health Fund Rebates
If you’re a health fund member, you can claim your fund rebate directly via HICAPS at Given Smile. You’ll pay only the applicable gap for your dental services. Most health funds are accessible through HICAPS.
Seniors, DVA & Medicare CDBS patients
Our dentists have approval to treat Department of Veterans’ Affairs patients at our practice. We welcome senior patients. We look forward to helping you maintain your oral health in our comfortable practice.
Children
Your children may be eligible under the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) which covers most dental services. This scheme provides up to $1,000 of benefits per child over 2 calendar years, for eligible kids between 2 and 17 years of age. For further information about your child’s eligibility, please visit the CDBS website.
Your payment options
Payment for your dental treatment is required at the completion of each visit. For your convenience, at Given Smile we offer you a choice of EFTPOS, Credit Card (excluding Diners), cash or cheque payment options. We also accept American Express cards (no surcharge).
