Do you accept my health fund?
We accept all health funds. We also have HICAPS which means that you can swipe your health fund card and claim your rebate on the spot.
In addition, our staff are very knowledgeable about health insurance and can help patients navigate health fund rebates and claims.
What does your practice do to limit your impact on the environment?
At Berry Dental Studio we do not place silver amalgam fillings. This is to minimise the release of mercury into the environment.
Our dental chairs are from Finland and incorporate amalgam filters to reduce the release of Mercury into the environment. This means when an old filling is replaced, the amalgam does not end up down the drain.
We use the highest quality materials and equipment that lasts as long as possible.
We limit the use of single-use plastics. We have achieved this by swapping out disposable items for versions that can be sterilised and reused.
Do you have after hours appointments?
We offer evening and early morning appointments to accommodate our patients with busy schedules. Call our studio for availability or book online at the button above.
Do you participate in the Medicare dental scheme for children?
We provide visits to the dentist that are relaxing and fun for kids.
We do not currently bulk bill under CDBS. If you would like to claim under CDBS, please keep your receipts to claim manually. Please see the FAQs above for our fee information.
