Fees & Finance

There are numerous treatment options and variables including the type of treatment and its duration. Following your initial assessment, we will provide you with an accurate quote for your recommended treatment as well as any other treatment options. This quote will include the orthodontic appliance(s), all associated appointments and adjustments, as well as retainers upon completion of your orthodontic journey. This information and more will be given to you at your consultation.

Most dental treatment, beside those few items recognised under the Child Dental Benefits Schedule, is not covered by Medicare, and orthodontics is, unfortunately, no exception.

We most certainly do! Any treatment cost over $500 can be placed on an interest-free payment plan. For more information, visit Payment Plans.
