Eligible for Child Dental Benefit? Find out here.

Under the Medicare Child Dental Benefits for basic dental services are capped at $ 1,000 per child over 2 consecutive calendar years. If you do not use all of your $ 1,000 benefit in the first year of eligibility, you can use it in the second year if you are still eligible. Any remaining balance will not be carried forward at the end of the second year.

Benefits will cover a range of services including examinations, x-rays, cleaning, fissure sealing, fillings, root canals, and extractions.

Benefits are not available for orthodontic or cosmetic dental work and cannot be paid for any services provided in a hospital.

Medicare Child Dental Benefit Schedule services will not count towards the Medicare Safety Net or the Extended Medicare Safety Net thresholds.

You cannot claim a benefit under the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Schedule and from your private health insurer for the same dental service.

To use your Medicare Child Dental Benefit Voucher at Harris Dental Boutique you will need to pay the account in full and then claim your 100% refund from Medicare.
