What Is Included and Why Fees Vary
A “from” price reflects a straightforward version of a treatment. Your actual fee can be higher because dental treatment is tailored to your mouth. For example, a filling in an easy-to-reach tooth is simpler than a large filling on a back molar, and root canal therapy on a front tooth with a single canal differs from a back tooth with several canals. This is why we quote from a starting figure and confirm the exact cost once we have examined you.
A few things commonly affect the final fee. These include the number of teeth involved, the position and condition of the tooth, the materials chosen for crowns, veneers or aligners, and any preliminary work needed first, such as an extraction before an implant. Diagnostic x-rays, charged at $65 each, may also form part of your assessment. When you attend, your dentist explains what is recommended and what it will cost before any treatment begins, so there are no surprises. You can read more about what drives the price of a single dental implant and the factors behind clear aligner and Invisalign treatment in our detailed guides.
Payment Options, Health Funds and HICAPS
We aim to make paying for dental care as straightforward as possible. Sydney Smile Centre accepts all health funds and uses HICAPS for on-the-spot claiming, so any eligible rebate is processed at your appointment and you pay only the gap rather than paying in full and waiting for a refund. How much you can claim depends entirely on your individual policy, including your annual limits, any major dental sub-limits and waiting periods, so it is worth checking your level of cover with your fund.
For treatments where you want to spread the cost, we offer payment plans and accept Afterpay for eligible patients. This lets you break a larger fee into instalments rather than paying it all upfront. Our team can talk you through the options that suit your budget at your appointment. You can find more detail on our payment plan options and on how health-fund claiming with HICAPS works.
Free Consultations for Dental Implants and Clear Aligners
Dental implants and clear aligner treatment such as Invisalign are bigger decisions, so we offer a free consultation for both. At this appointment your dentist assesses your suitability, discusses your goals and explains the recommended plan along with an exact fee before you commit to anything. A free consultation means you can get clear, personalised information without an upfront cost, and then decide in your own time whether to go ahead, use a health-fund rebate where eligible, set up a payment plan, or a combination of these.
Student Discounts, CDBS and Hospital Vouchers
Several options may help reduce the cost of care for those who are eligible. We offer student discounts, so let us know if you are studying when you book. Eligible children may be able to receive certain dental services through the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS), a government scheme that provides a capped benefit toward basic dental treatment for eligible families. We also accept hospital vouchers where applicable. Eligibility for CDBS and hospital vouchers is set by the relevant scheme rather than by our practice, so please bring any relevant details to your appointment and our team can check what applies to you.
How to Book
The most reliable way to know exactly what your treatment will cost is a consultation and examination. Once your dentist has assessed your mouth and discussed your goals, you receive an exact fee before anything begins. Sydney Smile Centre is located at Shop 1, 16 Maroubra Road, Pagewood NSW 2035, with free parking available. We see patients from right across the Eastern Suburbs, including Maroubra, Eastgardens, Hillsdale, Kingsford, Mascot and Botany. We are open Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm and Saturday 8am to 12pm.
