Your benefits reset every January 1.
Most Australian health funds operate on a calendar-year benefits cycle. Any unused extras benefits — including dental — expire on December 31 and do not carry over. If you haven't had a checkup and clean this year, there's a real chance you're leaving money on the table.
A standard checkup and clean is one of the most commonly covered dental services. Depending on your level of cover, it may cost you little or nothing out of pocket.
What's typically covered?
Most extras policies with dental cover include: routine checkups and examinations, professional scale and clean (teeth cleaning), dental X-rays (with limits), and fluoride treatments. Higher-tier policies often also cover fillings, extractions, and other general dental work. Check your fund's schedule of benefits or call them directly to confirm your current balance.
