Australian Dental Health Victoria are visiting St Joseph's Primary School during the week of Tuesday, 7 October (Term 3, Week 1).

Many students are eligible for fully subsidised dental care under Medicare's Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS), which covers full check ups and treatment at no cost to families or our school.

For students who are not eligible, pro Bono oral health screenings are offered at no cost to families. These checks are not supported by Medicare or any govenment funding and are fully funded by Australian Dental Health. These pro bono screenings often identify early dental issues.

To keep this support going, students receiving pro bono checks will be seen during recess and lunch breaks.
