Give your child the best start to lifelong oral health with gentle, family-focused dental care at Robina Dental Group. Eligible children can access essential dental services through the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS), making preventive and restorative treatment more affordable for local families.
The CDBS is a government-funded initiative designed to make dental care more accessible for Australian children. Here's how the program works and the types of treatment it covers.
The Child Dental Benefits Schedule is an Australian Government program that provides eligible children with access to Medicare-funded dental care. The scheme covers a range of important preventive and general dental treatments, helping families maintain their children's oral health without financial stress.
At Robina Dental Group, our team can explain your benefits and help you make the most of your child's entitlements.
Eligibility is based on age and family circumstances. If you're unsure where your child stands, we can check for you — quickly and free of charge.
Children may be eligible if they meet Medicare's age requirements and either receive, or are part of a family receiving, certain Australian Government payments. If you are unsure whether your child qualifies, we are happy to check eligibility on your behalf before your appointment.
Our goal is to make accessing children's dental care in Robina simple and stress-free.
The CDBS covers a broad range of essential dental services — from preventive check-ups to restorative treatment. Here are the most common services accessed by eligible families.
Regular check-ups help monitor your child's oral development and identify concerns early.
Preventive treatments help reduce the risk of tooth decay and keep young smiles healthy.
Digital X-rays and protective sealants support early diagnosis and long-term cavity prevention.
When treatment is needed, we provide gentle, age-appropriate care to restore oral health.
The habits your child forms today will shape their oral health for life. Early visits help catch problems before they start, build trust with the dentist, and set the stage for lifelong confident smiles.
Establishing healthy dental habits early in life lays the foundation for a lifetime of confident smiles. Regular visits allow us to prevent tooth decay, monitor jaw and tooth development, and provide personalised oral hygiene advice. By addressing concerns early, children are more likely to enjoy positive dental experiences and avoid complex treatment in the future.
We've designed every visit to be positive, gentle and confidence-building. Here's a step-by-step look at what happens when you bring your child to Robina Dental Group.
