Promoting dental benefits for school children

The Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) is a government program designed to make sure that every child has access to necessary dental care. It helps cover dental costs for eligible children, making essential dental services more accessible.

The program covers up to $1,132 for each eligible child aged 2 to 17 for basic dental services. It covers check-ups, x-rays, cleaning, fillings, and more, focusing on preventing dental problems and keeping kids' teeth healthy.

By promoting the CDBS, schools can help children receive the dental care they need.
