Payment Options
At Granite Belt Dental, we offer the following payment options:
- We accept cash, eftpos, and credit cards (Mastercard & Visa).
- We offer HICAPS that allows you to instantly claim on the spot from your private health insurance. Bring your health insurance card along to your appointment and make your Hicaps claim at the time of treatment.
- We also offer Afterpay and Zip Money for general, cosmetic and specialised dental treatment.
Health Funds/PrivateHealth Insurance
We are preferred providers for Medibank Private, BUPA, HCF, CBHS , TUH and NIB. This means that you will get your maximum benefit back with us, up to the limit of your annual dental limit.
If you aren’t with one of the above health funds, don’t worry because we accept all Health Funds.
We use HICAPS terminals, so you can conveniently claim for your treatment on the spot so you only ever have to pay the gap for your treatment.
Child DentalBenefit Schedule
Is your child eligible for government funded dental care?
Did you know your child may be eligible for $1000 worth of dental treatment through the Medicare funded Child Dental Benefits Schedule. If you have a child between the ages of 2 and 17 years and you receive benefits such as family tax benefit part A, your children may be eligible. Our practice is currently bulk-billing treatment for eligible patients, call us today to find out more.
Veterans Affairs
We welcome Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) patients.
If you are an eligible member of the veteran community, you are able to access a range of dental services subsidised by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs.
To be eligible for these services you must hold a Gold or White Repatriation Card. Eligibility for dental treatment varies between Gold and White Card holders and there are some restrictions under the DVA Dental Schedule.
These restrictions may be annual monetary limits, pre-approval requirements for some dental services, and/or limitations on the length of time that must elapse before a service can be claimed or reclaimed.

Finance Options
At Granite Belt Dental, we understand that dental treatments may put a strain on your budget, and looking after your teeth can easily get pushed to the bottom of a long list of priorities.
We believe in getting dental treatment when you need it instead of when you can afford it, which is why we are pleased to offer our patients to access to three finance options for treatment.
That's why at Granite Belt Dental, we are pleased to offer patient financing options through via Afterpay and ZIPMoney.
Please let us know you are considering signing up with a finance plan and we can assist you in choosing the best plan that suits. Some of our plans offer zero interest, zero deposit, and you can pay in convenient installments.
