Dental network

We want to keep you smiling

Our network dentists deliver great value dental treatment for our members with extras cover.

We’ve been growing our national network of preferred dentists, to help you access a dentist closer to home. The network is comprised of National Dental Care, Maven Dental, Pacific Smiles Dental, 1300SMILE, as well as several independent and regional clinics.

At a network dentist your dental care is more affordable than ever before. On our most popular extras, you’ll have nothing to pay for preventative dental treatment.

  • 100% back on check-up
  • 100% back on scale and clean
  • 100% back on bitewing x-ray (once yearly)
  • 100% back on other preventative dental items

*No-gap dental network offer applies to Premier Extras, Value Extras, Top Extras and ADF Total Package Gold (see product guide for terms and service limits).

How to claim at a network dentist

  1. Make sure you’ve served the 2 month waiting period before receiving treatment (or 12 months for major dental and orthodontics).
  2. Show your Defence Health membership card to activate the dental network lower fees.
  3. Swipe your membership card for your Defence Health extras benefit.

Your dentist is your choice

Our goal is to make quality dental care more affordable for the whole family. If you don’t want to use the dental network, that’s okay. You can choose to see your own dentist (subject to General claiming conditions) and you will still receive your regular extras benefit from us.
