Dental Care in High School

The School Dental Service provides free general dental care to eligible school children at school-based Dental Therapy centres. The service is available to students up to age 16 or until the end of year 11, whichever comes first.

The care includes routine dental examinations or check-ups, oral health advice, extractions, fillings, X-rays and fissure sealants. Specialist dental services such as oral surgery and orthodontics are not provided, and patients will be referred for these services.
