Fees per ADA item number at practices placed in Brisbane

10 of the 23 dental operators whose pages were read print a fee against an ADA item number on their own site. Each fee is one practice’s figure for one ADA item number, read from its own fee page and listed alphabetically by practice, not by price. A line naming several item numbers (a root canal “package”, a check-up bundle), a range, an offer or a health-fund benefit is not read as a fee. Fees are never added together, so no check-up-and-clean total is built from them. A low-to-high spread is shown only where at least 4 operators print an exact fee for the same item; below that each practice is named. “From” is the practice’s own word and marks a floor.

According to TreatCompare's read of Australian dental operators' own offer pages on 5 October 2026, 4 of the 8 dental operators with a location placed in Brisbane publish a new-patient offer that applies to those locations.

According to Services Australia, Medicare does not generally cover routine adult dental care in Australia. Eligible children may access the Child Dental Benefits Schedule. Most adults rely on private health insurance extras cover for partial dental rebates, subject to annual limits and waiting periods.

According to AHPRA, all dental practitioners in QLD must be registered with the Dental Board of Australia. The ADA Find a Dentist directory, Healthengine, and major chains (Pacific Smiles, Bupa Dental, 1300SMILES) are publicly verifiable starting points for finding a registered practitioner in Brisbane.
