Adolescents / Children:

If you or your children are under 18 they are eligible for free basic dental care in NZ.

If your child is under the age of 13 please phone 0800 825 583, and book in to see the local DHB Dental Therapist in your area.

if your child is in year 9 or above and under the age of 18 then you can enroll them at a private dental clinic, like us!

We treat children under 13 for emergencies if the school dental clinic is unavailable.

We also treat children for dental related injuries that will be covered by ACC.

Once your children are at high-school (year 9 to 18 years of age) you can then enroll them into our care.

All basic dental services for enrolled eligible high school students (and school leavers under 18 years) are free.

If you decide that you would prefer your preschool or primary school-aged child see us here for routine dental care, we would love to see them, but private fees will apply. The most common reason for choosing private dental care for your under 13 years old would be if they require a filling in a back permanent tooth, and you want the filling to be white rather than amalgam (grey filling).

We are always happy to see new patients. Feel free to give us a call if you need any questions answered. – 03 448 8159
