Who can attend our dental clinics
Everyone under 18 years who either live in or go to school in South Australia can attend one of our clinics.
There are no waiting lists for general dental care for children.
We recommend children have a dental check-up at around 12 months of age.
When your child turns 18, they may be able to continue accessing dental services at one of our clinics for adults.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients
SA Dental aims to improve the oral health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people by increasing oral health knowledge in the community and by improving access to dental services through The Aboriginal Oral Health Program (AOHP).
Everyone under 18 years who either lives in or goes to school in South Australia can attend one of our clinics.
We provide some specialist services by referral at our Adelaide Dental Hospital (ADH) and fees may apply.
When making a dental appointment for your child, talk to our staff about any support that may be available for you and your family.
