Child Dental Benefits

Early dental assessment, age 2 years and onwards is crucial for children in Mildura because their face and jaws are still developing. At Deakin Dental, this allows us to identify any potential issues with dental anomalies, diet, breathing issues, jaw growth and tooth alignment early on. Addressing these abnormalities while the bones are still pliable can lead to more effective and less invasive treatment options for your child in Mildura.

Facial orthopaedics focuses on guiding the proper growth and development of a child’s jaws and facial bones. Functional appliances, such as Myobrace, are used at Deakin Dental in Mildura to help improve breathing habits, tongue posture, poorly developing jaw and facial proportions in all three dimensions. This proactive approach can help build a strong foundation for a healthy smile and facial structure for children in Mildura.

The Child Dental Benefits Schedule can cover a range of basic dental services for eligible children at Deakin Dental in Mildura. These services may include examinations, cleanings, fillings, X-rays, and more. Our team at our Mildura clinic can provide detailed information about the specific treatments covered under the CDBS.
