At Malvern Family Dental, we feel that limiting the options available to you to restore your health (dental and otherwise) based on dental or Health insurance coverage is the wrong thing to do. We value the Doctor-Patient relationship in the old-fashion sense: We are committed to providing you with all of the information, options, and guidance you need to make the best decision for you and your health.

We feel our relationship is with you and you alone. You, your health, and your satisfaction with the services we provide are all that matter. At Malvern Family Dental we can help you with payment plans that allow you to afford truly excellent dentistry. Our financing arrangements can allow you to pay off the cost of procedures anywhere from 3 months to 24 months — with convenient, low monthly payments!

If you have CBHS dental insurance, you will get the maximum rebate on your preventative dental treatments including routine dental check-up, dental X-rays, scale and clean, and mouthguards, twice a year. We are part of the CBHS Dental Choice Network, which means that provided you have CBHS dental cover, there is minimal or no gap charge for your preventative treatment.

HUMM PROVIDERS

With humm you can Buy Now Pay Later, not just for little things, but for big ones as well. Spend from $1 to $30,000 and repay over time, always interest free.

We welcome all Australian health fund providers. For your convenience, we have a Hicaps facility which minimises the out of pocket expenses on the spot for you.

All it takes is a swipe of your health insurance membership card on our HICAPS terminal in the end of your dental appointment. This will automatically calculate and pay the maximum rebate from your private health fund and then you simply pay the difference.
