At Forest Road Dental in Hurstville, we understand that a child’s first dental visit is a significant milestone. It shapes their attitude toward dental care for years to come. Our dedicated children's dentist is experienced in providing gentle, compassionate care, ensuring your child’s experience is both comfortable and positive.

We take special care to make our young patients feel at ease. Our practice is equipped with a kid-friendly space featuring a dedicated play area, and our treatment rooms have cheerful décor to create a fun and welcoming environment.

During the first visit, we’ll provide both parents and children with detailed information about their dental health in a relaxed and reassuring setting. We focus on preventive care and education, teaching your child how to maintain healthy habits for life.

Child Dental Benefits Scheme

At Forest Road Dental, we are pleased to participate in the Child Dental Benefits Schedule, which began on January 1, 2014. This scheme provides eligible children with up to $1,095* worth of dental treatment over a two-year period. To determine if your child is eligible, simply call us with your child's Medicare number and details.

We are committed to making dental care accessible and affordable, so we bulk bill all eligible services up to the $1,095* limit. This means you can receive high-quality care for checkups, cleanings, X-rays, fissure sealants, fillings, extractions, and root canals without any out-of-pocket costs. Please note that orthodontic and cosmetic treatments are not covered under this scheme.

For more information, please visit www.humanservices.gov.au/childdental. If you have any questions or would like to book an appointment, feel free to contact us.

For children requiring more complex treatments or who may feel anxious, we can refer treatment to be performed under general anesthesia by a specialist. This ensures that more extensive procedures can be completed smoothly and with minimal discomfort.

To book your child’s appointment or to discuss specific dental concerns, contact Forest Road Dental today. Our team is here to support your child’s dental journey from the very first visit.
