Currently many Australians have difficulty accessing essential
dental treatment.

This is why the ADA is proposing an improved targeted dental health care scheme to replace the CDDS.

We call it DentalAccess.

The Current System

Chronic Disease Dental Scheme

Funding is not targeted so even millionaires can get free dental treatment

Many Australians find it difficult to get the treatment they urgently need

Administration of the scheme is confusing for patients and dentists alike

What We Propose

Dental Access

Targeted funding to the those Australians most in need of treatment

Provides patients with an increased range
of services

Provides patients with a choice as to who provides their care.

What You Can Do

You need to act immediately to influence changes to the CDDS legislation

DentalAccess will give Australians
the dental care they need.
