First Visit Pricing

Initial examination (011): $69

Intraoral pictures (072): included with the examination and taken as deemed necessary

Scale and clean (114): $165 starting price

The fee for a scale and clean varies depending on the level of deposits present in the mouth and the time and effort required to achieve a full and thorough clean.

Higher levels of plaque require longer time and effort for removal and hence will incur a higher fee.

For patients with severe gum disease (periodontitis), a specific gum examination known as periodontal charting is required to diagnose the severity of gum disease. This incurs an additional fee. Periodontal disease requires a deeper clean under the gums and this is different from a standard scale and clean. Costing and item numbers are different and will be discussed with you at your first visit appointment. For more information about periodontitis, read out blog here

Application of remineralising agent/fluoride (121): $50

Radiographs (022): $49 each

  • The type and number of radiographs required will depend on each case.
  • More information about radiographs is available in the FAQ section

Health Fund Info

The Melbourne Smile Clinic is not a preferred provider for any Health Fund as we prefer to operate independently of corporate decisions made by the Health Funds

We believe that private health funds should not influence your right to choose the dental practice providing your treatment.

Rather, patients should choose a practice that they are comfortable with and be sure that their dentist is recommending the best treatment available, not one that meets a health fund’s pre-set terms and conditions. 

Preferred providers have contracted dentists who provide treatment at an agreed fee with the private health fund. Health funds then advertise “higher rebates” or “no out of pocket expenses” but only if you visit one of their dentists. We decided not to join the “preferred provider” scheme due to the implications contracted dentistry will have on the quality of dental care available to patients.

HICAPS machine is available so health fund rebates can be claimed on the spot. 

Payment Options

We accept a variety of payment options including all major credit cards.
