  • Question Benefits of Using Dental Payment Plans

    Buy Now, Pay Later for dental care — Payment plans allow you to get the essential dental care you need right away, even if you can’t afford to pay the full cost upfront. This means you don’t have to delay important treatments, and you can avoid further oral health issues down the line.

    Affordable treatment options — Dental payment plans allow you to break down the cost of your treatment into smaller, manageable instalments. This helps you avoid large upfront payments, making dental care more affordable and accessible to all.

    Interest-free payments — Afterpay, ZipPay and Humm all offer interest-free periods, so you can pay for your treatment over time without high-interest growing.

    Improved oral health — Stay on top of your oral health and avoid the risks of untreated dental problems. Payment plans allow you to go to the dentist when you need to, and get personalised advice from some of Perth’s leading dentists.

  • Question Do dental payment plans require a credit check?

    Some providers will require a credit check, especially for larger credit limits or longer repayment terms. Others like ZipPay and Afterpay may not conduct a full credit check, but may assess your account history and spending behaviour. Always speak with a qualified financial advisor before making such decisions.

  • Question Are there any fees or interest charges with dental payment plans?

    Many dental payment plans, like Afterpay, ZipPay, ZipMoney and Humm, offer interest-free periods, and there are often no extra charges provided that payments are made on time. However, it is always important to review the terms and conditions before committing to any payment plan.

  • Question Can I pay off my dental payment plan early?

    Most dental payment plans allow you to pay off your balance early. Paying your plan off early may help you avoid any late fees and exempt you from their monthly account fees. Be sure to check with your dental payment plan provider for more information.

  • Question What dental treatments can I use a payment plan for?

    Dental payment plans can be used for a wide range of treatments, including routine check-ups, fillings, crowns, teeth whitening, orthodontics, and more extensive procedures like implants or root canals. If you are unsure which treatments are covered, be sure to speak to your payment plan provider.

  • Question How much does Invisalign cost?

    The Invisalign process begins with a detailed consultation. During your consultation, your dentist will take digital scans of your teeth and develop a plan to help you reach your goals.

    Costs start at $4500 but can vary depending on case complexity and duration, but we’ll always provide a clear quote and flexible payment options.
