If you need dental treatments but are unsure how you will pay for them, you have options. At Oasis Smiles Dental, we strive to give you as many payment and financing options as possible so you can receive the dental care you deserve.

One such option at our dental clinic focuses on helping you access your superannuation funds to cover dental treatments. Keep reading to learn more about how this works.

Investing in Your Future with a Super

Your superannuation, or “super” for short, is one way to save for retirement. This long-term investment grows over time; your employer adds to it when you begin working, and you can also contribute voluntarily.

Depending on the super fund you belong to and the investment options you choose, your money is invested and managed until you stop working. However, in certain circumstances, you may be able to access your superannuation funds before you retire.

What Is Access My Super?

We are pleased to offer a convenient payment option to help you get the dental treatment you need. We understand how stressful it can be to find payment options for the costs associated with quality dental care, so we are committed to helping with the process.

With Access My Super, you can use some of your superannuation funds to restore your oral health and receive necessary dental treatment.

How Does It Work?

If you decide you’d like to consider accessing your super, here are the steps we’ll take together:

  1. First, you will need to arrange a consultation with our dental clinic. During this consultation, we will discuss the dental treatments you need and formulate a treatment plan to suit your smile goals, timeline and budget.
  2. Next, our front office coordinator will help you complete the forms associated with the early release of your superannuation.
  3. Then, they will submit your application through Access My Super. You will not have to worry about navigating this process alone; we will be with you to answer questions and ensure the proper documentation.
  4. Finally, once your application is approved, your funds will be released, and your dental treatment can begin.
