Access My Super
It is now possible to apply for the early compassionate release of your Superannuation to pay for certain dental treatment. Depending on the superannuation fund you are with, you are allowed access to a lump sum to pay out-of-pocket expenses for dental treatment for yourself or your dependents.
Instead of waiting until you are 65 years old or over, you may be able to access your funds today.
Our team can assist you with this process and can help you to get the smile you desire and deserve!

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Superannuation - Answered
To know more, here are some answers to frequently asked questions about using superannuation funds to finance dental procedures:
Yes. You can be eligible to withdraw from your superannuation to fund dental procedures.
Financial coverage for dental care is not as popular as the other more commonly known reasons to apply for the early release of superannuation funds (i.e. based on compassionate grounds, financial hardship or emergency medical expenses). That’s why it’s important to partner with a dental practice that has the specialisation as well as the dedication to help you with this option.
You have the right to apply for dental superannuation early release, as the option is available to all citizens and residents of Australia.
Needless to say, you will have to satisfy the minimum criteria to be declared eligible. It’s also important to know the cut-off dates for making claims. Again, working with a knowledgeable dental office ensures you will have a clear view of the complete list of requirements and will be able to identify if you meet them.
If your super cannot cover the amount needed for your treatment, you have the option to use the superannuation of your partner, immediate or non-immediate family member.
In the same way, if you have sufficient funds, your superannuation may also be used to pay for the dental or orthodontic treatments of your dependents.
There is no set maximum limit on how much you can withdraw from your super savings. The amount will depend on the cost of your treatment.
Your dental superannuation may help alleviate the costs of a wide range of procedures, depending on the circumstances presented and especially if the dental condition already affects your general health. The treatments covered can include the following:
- Corrective orthodontic treatments, such as braces
- Dental implants
- Endodontic therapy and procedures such as root canal
- Oral or maxillofacial surgery
- Dental crowns fitting, placement and associated procedures
- General dentistry services, including routine check-up and cleaning, dental fillings, tooth extraction, dentures installation, treatment of certain gum diseases and more.
Our dental team can guide you on the specific treatments covered and the scenarios under which they can be deemed eligible for super funding.
