Arriving prepared means your first visit to Whitehills Dental Practice runs smoothly, allowing our team to focus on you rather than on paperwork. A few documents and everyday items ensure we have a complete picture of your health, allowing us to process any rebates on the spot and get you into the chair more quickly.
What to Bring to Your First Appointment
- Current prescription list or medications — Knowing every medicine and dosage helps us avoid drug interactions and tailor anaesthetics or antibiotics safely.
- Medicare card — Essential if you intend to claim a Child Dental Benefits Schedule rebate on the day.
- Healthcare or private health extras card — Swipe-and-claim at reception to minimise any out-of-pocket cost for eligible dental services.
- Photo ID and referral letter (if applicable) — Helpful for new-patient records or when another provider has requested specific treatment.
- Any recent dental x-rays or mouthguards — Bringing these can prevent unnecessary imaging and give us a clearer baseline of your oral health.
By gathering these items before you leave home, you’ll spend less time filling out forms and more time discussing treatment goals with your dentist.
