Affordable Dentist Melbourne - Quality Dental Care at Core Dental Group

At Core Dental Group, we believe that quality dental care should be accessible to every Melbourne family - not just those with premium health cover or flexible budgets. Our approach to affordability is built on transparency, honesty, and genuine flexibility. We are not about being the cheapest dentist in Melbourne. We are about being the most accessible.

What Affordability Really Means at Core Dental

Affordable dental care does not mean cutting corners. At Core Dental Group - Your Local Dental Practice - affordability is a commitment to:

• Transparent pricing - you always know what treatment costs before we begin
• Upfront written quotes - every treatment plan is provided in writing; no surprises
• No hidden fees - the price we quote is the price you pay
• Flexible payment options - because a good smile should not require a large upfront payment
• Accessible locations - 7 convenient Melbourne locations so you do not have to travel far

Our Pricing Approach

We provide written treatment plans before commencing any dental work. Check-up and clean appointments start from $290. Emergency consultations start from $90. All pricing is available to discuss when you call or book online.

We will never recommend unnecessary treatment. Our dentists take an evidence-based approach - if a tooth can be saved with a filling, we recommend a filling. If a tooth can be monitored, we say so. Your trust is more important to us than your wallet.

Interest-Free Payment Plans with Payright

One of the most meaningful ways we make dental care accessible is through Payright - our preferred interest-free payment plan provider. Payright allows eligible patients to spread the cost of treatment over time, with no interest charged.

Key details:

• Interest free for the full term
• Plans available for 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 or up to 30 months
• Fortnightly repayments - manageable and predictable
• Available for most dental treatments - from check-ups to implants and orthodontics
• A low establishment fee applies

Payright is available at all 7 Core Dental locations.

HICAPS - Instant Health Fund Claiming

All Core Dental locations are equipped with HICAPS, which means your health fund benefit is claimed on the spot. You only pay the gap - no claiming forms to submit, no waiting for reimbursements.

We accept all major Australian health funds.

Preferred Health Fund Provider

Core Dental Wyndham and Berwick are preferred providers for HCF, CBHS and NIB, which may mean reduced out-of-pocket costs for members of those funds. Contact your fund to understand your specific entitlements.

Bulk Billing for Children

Eligible children aged 2-17 can receive essential dental care at no cost under the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS). Core Dental bulk bills under the CDBS at all 7 Melbourne locations, so families can access check-ups, fillings, X-rays, fissure sealants and more - without paying a cent.

No-Gap Check-Up and Clean

New patients with eligible private health insurance may qualify for a no-gap check-up and clean - meaning the complete initial appointment costs nothing out of pocket. This covers examination, X-rays, OPG, oral cancer screening, scale and clean, and clinical photographs.

Supercare - Use Your Super for Dental

For larger treatments such as implants or full mouth rehabilitation, eligible patients may be able to access their superannuation early through the Supercare scheme. No credit checks, no debt - just using your own savings for your health.
