Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS)
The Child Dental Benefits Schedule was introduced by the Australian Government to provide financial assistance to families and encourage children and teenagers to care for their oral health and to introduce them to preventive care solutions by having regular examinations and hygiene appointments.
The examination and hygiene appointments assist in reducing dental disease during a period of higher risk and promotes maintaining good oral health habits once they leave home and begin venturing out on their own.
The Child Dental Benefits Schedule provides dental benefits up to $1,000 every two years per eligible child to help families with the cost of an oral examination, radiographs, preventive services and treatment, for example:
- Dental check-ups and cleans
- Xrays
- Fissure sealants
- Fillings (white and metal)
- Root canals
- Extractions
