Mouthguards in Sport
Do you play ANY contact sport? What about your children? Does your sporting fraternity recommend a mouthguard before you take the field? Many sports will not LET you on the field unless you have a mouthguard and that is fantastic. There are so many injuries that can occur to teeth on a field and you will surprised at the sports that we have seen injuries from... yes, even those sports where mouthguards are not compulsory.
There is also a huge difference between "stock" mouthguards and CUSTOM, Professionally fit mouthguards. There are even differing standards within the professional series depending on your sport ie Child/Adult/High Impact etc.
If you play ANY sports, or have any concerns or questions in regard to mouthguards, please do not hesitate to make an apointment so that we can construct a mouthguard that is right for YOU!
For more information you can have a look at our Mouthguards page.
Are you in a Health Fund?
The Australian Dental Association has recently had a look across the board at a lot of health funds and found a common query from patients.... "Why are my Health Fund rebates for dental treatment so low?" If you would like to know what was uncovered, visit www.ada.org.au/rebates and you can read all about it. You are certainly not alone. A lot of patients across a lot of funds are experiencing similar issues. See what else you can do!
Know your fund and know your year - this can also effect how you claim. A "health fund year" can be defined as a Calendar year (January to December), Financial year (1 July through to 30 June) or Anniversary year (Date of policy start). You should check with your Private Dental Health Fund about which "year" applies to your level of cover.
