How much does a dentist cost?

For patients with no health cover, the first check-up and clean at Amazing Smiles Gold Coast costs $189. Otherwise, dental costs can vary depending on the type of treatment required. To provide an accurate quote tailored to your needs, it is recommended that you start with an initial check-up and clean. This enables our dentists to assess your oral health thoroughly. As a preferred provider for major health funds including Bupa, Medibank, CBHS, HCF, TUH, and Westfund, eligible patients may benefit from No-Gap dental check-ups, depending on their level of cover.

How much is a tooth filling from a dentist?

The cost of a dental filling varies depending on factors such as the type of filling material, the size, and the location of the cavity. A simple composite filling typically costs between $200 and $500 per tooth. Following an initial check-up and clean, our Gold Coast Dentists can assess your oral health to provide an accurate quote for your dental filling needs.

Private health insurance often covers part or all of the cost of dental fillings, but this may vary depending on the patient’s package.

What is the cheapest way to replace a missing tooth?

A dental flipper or removable partial denture is the most cost-effective way to replace a missing tooth. These options are affordable and minimally invasive. Dental flippers are acrylic and can be made quickly, sometimes within a few days. They consist of a pink plate with one or more artificial teeth. While they are not as durable or functional as dental implants or bridges, flippers are a good short-term solution for those on a budget. It’s important to consult with an Amazing Smiles Dentist on the Gold Coast to evaluate your specific dental needs and obtain personalized cost estimates.

What is the cheapest option to fix the look of teeth?

Enhancing your smile affordably often involves simple, non-invasive treatments. Composite bonding uses tooth-coloured resin to fix decay, fractures, chips, and discolouration. This cosmetic procedure repairs minor imperfections, closes gaps, and reshapes teeth.
