At Lidums Dental we acknowledge complex dental treatment can be more costly, and we offer financial options and plans to assist in our patients receiving the treatment they want

At our Adelaide Dental Practice, we can provide dental treatment that suits your budget for comprehensive treatment, and satisfies both short-term and long-term dental objectives. We are able to offer a range of finance options to assist you in the critical decision-making process.

Most plans are suited to your particular priorities or financial circumstances, and our friendly team will provide the right information to assist in your decision.

Payment

We accept all major credit cards, cash and cheques and can assist you in accessing any other rebates such as health funds or third-party entitlements in order to reduce out-of-pocket expenses. Options are available such as third-party financial providers or Early Release Superannuation for those with a larger and more comprehensive treatment plan.

It may appear quite shocking for some people when they discover that costs can be higher than originally expected. Don’t let this deter you, it’s important to know that when patients situations are so dire that standard dental care does not suit them or allow them to eat or socialise comfortably, then the ability to finance a more comfortable and predictable treatment becomes highly important to them. We hear many times over in our ‘Patient Experience‘ videos, “Yes, the cost was high, but it was worth it and I would do it all over again!”

Financial Options

We have partnered with financial companies who can provide financial advice and access to funds with the least amount of impact on your financial position. Whether its a low interest rate or finding a financial option that was unexpected, our financial partners will assist in getting you to your new smile, so you can eat, smile and laugh again.

4. Staged Dental Treatment

Rather than pay a large lump sum upfront, you may prefer to undergo ‘staged treatment’ which allows patients to undergo stages of dental treatment over a longer period of time so they can benefit from the same stable and beautiful results, while paying only for the treatment received at each stage. A careful plan is developed to ensure finances can be managed as well as getting a predictable result. We have many patients who have had this type of treatment, and after 20 years are still enjoying the results.
