NIB Dental in Ashgrove | North Brisbane

We participate in the First Choice Dental Network, helping eligible patients reduce out-of-pocket costs on everyday dental care.

Using Your NIB Dental Extras With Us

If you’re covered with NIB dental extras, you can use your benefits for eligible treatments at Stewart Road Dental. As part of the NIB First Choice Dental Network, we work with agreed rates for many common services, which may help reduce your out-of-pocket costs.

Claims are processed instantly through HICAPS, so you only pay any remaining gap on the day.

What Does “First Choice” Mean for You?

  • We follow agreed rates set by NIB for many General Dental services
  • This may result in lower out-of-pocket costs for eligible members
  • It helps your dental extras stretch further across the year
  • You still receive care based on your clinical needs

While First Choice helps improve affordability, your treatment plan at Stewart Road Dental is always guided by what is best for your health.

NIB No Gap Dental (Eligibility Applies)

Eligible NIB members on suitable Extras policies may receive a No Gap preventative dental visit, which may include:

  • Comprehensive oral examination (item numbers 011 or 012)
  • Scale and clean (item number 114)
  • Fluoride treatment (item number 121)
  • Routine dental X-rays/diagnostics (item number 022)

No Gap eligibility depends on your individual policy, waiting periods, clinical need, and remaining annual limits. Our team can confirm your benefits at the start of your appointment if you are not sure.

Common Dental Services Covered by NIB Extras

  • Check-ups and examinations
  • Scale and cleans
  • Fillings
  • Extractions
  • X-rays
  • Crowns and other major dental (with major dental cover)
  • Braces and clear aligners (with orthodontic cover)

Rebates and gap payments vary depending on your level of cover and remaining annual and lifetime limits.

On-the-Spot HICAPS Claiming

We process your NIB claim instantly at reception using HICAPS. This means you only need to pay any remaining gap on the day—no paperwork, no delays.

Your Care Always Comes First

While we proudly support NIB members through the First Choice Network, our clinical recommendations are always made based on what is right for you—not on insurer agreements, rebates, or targets.

You remain in full control of your treatment choices at all times.

Be Informed About Your NIB Policy

Because every NIB policy is different, we recommend that patients review their own level of cover, annual limits and waiting periods directly with NIB prior to treatment. This helps you understand what your policy includes for general, major or orthodontic dental services.

At your appointment, we can process a real-time HICAPS quote in the clinic by swiping your physical NIB card or tapping your digital card. This allows us to confirm exact rebates based on the specific item codes used for your treatment.
