Free onsite dental services at St John's

St John the Baptist Catholic Primary School, Woy Woy, is offering onsite dental services under a free Federal Government child dental benefits schedule.

The scheme grants all eligible parents with $1000 Medicare benefit which can be used towards dental expenses per child, over a two-year period.

"Smiles Onsite can do almost everything that your local dentist can do on board their unique mobile clinics," said principal Ms Nicole Cumming.

"If you would like them to see your child for a scale and clean, fillings, fissure seals and so on, these services can be offered with no gap payable.

"This service is a great opportunity to get kids into the habit of good oral hygiene, and we hope you're as excited about it as we are," Ms Cumming said.

Eligible parents should receive a confirmation letter and the Smiles Onsite can check eligibility on completion of their consent form which will go out with students in Term 3.
