Give your child the best start to lifelong oral health with gentle, family-focused dental care at Galleon Way Dental. Eligible children can access a range of Medicare-funded dental services through the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS), helping families receive quality dental care with little or no out-of-pocket expense for covered treatments.
The Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) is an Australian Government initiative that helps eligible children access essential dental care through Medicare. The program focuses on preventive and basic dental treatments to support healthy teeth and gums during childhood.
At Galleon Way Dental, we're proud to provide dental care under the CDBS and can help families understand their eligibility and available benefits before treatment begins.

The Child Dental Benefits Schedule covers many preventive and basic dental treatments that help children maintain healthy smiles as they grow.
Our dentists will always explain any recommended treatment and discuss your child's available Medicare benefits before commencing care.
Developing healthy dental habits during childhood plays an important role in lifelong oral health. Regular dental visits allow us to monitor your child's oral development, identify concerns early and provide preventive care before small problems become more serious.
Our friendly team creates a relaxed, welcoming environment where children can build confidence while learning positive oral hygiene habits that last a lifetime.
Many eligible families don't realise their child has access to Medicare-funded dental care. Regular check-ups through the CDBS can help detect problems early, reduce the need for more complex treatment in the future and encourage healthy oral habits from a young age.
