Dental Van Visit

We are once again offering families this opportunity from Australian Dental Health Victoria (ADHV) via their School Dental Initiative.

Australian Dental Health Victoria will examine children at ZERO out-of-pocket cost providing an equal opportunity when it comes to dental health. Every child at Wantirna College has the opportunity to see the dentist. 

The positive community impact is a reflection of the ADHV’s extensive experience in managing and accommodating to each school and family needs.

Australian Dental Health Victoria is able to provide students with:

• Check-ups
• Examinations
• Fillings
• Root canals
• Tooth strengthening fluoride varnish
• Preventative mouth cleans
• Protective coatings for permanent teeth
• Free oral health education
• Simple extractions
• Orthodontic referrals for braces

ADHV is legally compliant with The Department of Education and Training requirements, complies with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and with the Australian Department of Health & Human Services standards.

This week your child will bring home a permission form from ADHV. It will be a paper form, as it is provided by ADHV, and cannot be completed on Compass.

You need to fill in the form and have your child return it to the General Office at the College. This must be returned no later than Friday 18 August 2023 so that the ADHV team can organise the visit.

The appointments will begin on Monday 2 October 2023 and your child will be informed prior when their appointment is scheduled.

If you have any questions, please call or email me at the College.
