SuperCare Dental Funding
SuperCare Dental Funding is a specialised funding solution that helps individuals access their superannuation funds to cover the costs of dental treatments. SuperCare primarily helps patients access their superannuation for significant dental treatments, rather than routine check-ups or cleans. Although it may cover specific general procedures such as fillings or extractions alongside larger treatment plans, its primary purpose is to support more comprehensive dental care needs.
At Amazing Smiles Dental Clinics, we offer support and guidance to patients who wish to utilise SuperCare Dental Funding.
SuperCare Dental Funding is specifically designed to help improve your smile and oral health by providing financial assistance for various dental procedures.
SuperCare Dental Funding utilises the Early Release of Superannuation (ERS) program, which allows eligible individuals to access some of their superannuation funds for medical purposes.
This program is regulated by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), under Compassionate Release of Superannuation, and is available to those who meet specific criteria.
The Amazing Smiles Dental team are dedicated to providing support and making the process as smooth and hassle-free as possible.
How To Access Super For Dental Work
Steps involved when using SuperCare
By utilising SuperCare Dental Funding, you can overcome the financial barriers preventing you from accessing the dental treatments you need to improve your smile.
Supercare provides a convenient and flexible way to utilise your superannuation for dental purposes, ensuring optimal oral health and a confident smile. SuperCare can fund various dental treatments, including orthodontics, dental implants, root canal therapy, crowns, and select cosmetic procedures.

It is important to note that the specific process and requirements may vary, so it is advisable to consult with SuperCare or our team at Amazing Smiles for personalised guidance and assistance.
The process involves the following steps:
