Straight Answers to the Questions You Are Already Asking
We know what runs through your mind before booking. Here are the honest answers.
Is this a bait-and-switch?
No. The $179 visit is complete in itself. If the examination reveals something that needs attention, your dentist explains the finding, quotes the cost in writing, and the decision is yours. There is no second appointment you are expected to book before leaving.
Are there hidden costs?
$179 covers every item listed above. No add-on fees at the front desk. No charge for the treatment plan. No surprise line items on the receipt.
Will you pressure me into more treatment?
No. We'll explain any treatment that we recommend, why it's important, and answer all of your questions. You'll receive a written treatment plan to take home, and you can decide on the timing that's right for you. We're here to guide you, not pressure you.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
We understand that life doesn't always go to plan. Your appointment time is reserved specifically for you, so if you need to make a change, simply let us know as early as possible and we'll find another time that suits you. Because your treatment is important to your oral health, our team will actively follow up to help you get back on track and ensure you receive the care you need.
Do you accept my health fund?
Joyner Family Dental accepts all major Australian health funds. For eligible patients with private health cover, out-of-pocket costs may be reduced or fully covered depending on your policy.
What if I am nervous about the dentist?
