Access Your Superannuation for Essential Dental Treatment

Need Help Paying for Dental Treatment? You May Be Able to Use Your Superannuation

Paying for essential dental care can be stressful — especially when treatment is urgently needed. At Ellenbrook Smiles, we work with SuperCare, a service that assists patients in applying for the Compassionate Release of Superannuation (CRS). This program, administered by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), may allow eligible patients to use their superannuation to fund important dental and orthodontic treatments.
SuperCare guides you through the application process, helping to make it clear, compliant and stress-free.

What Is SuperCare?

SuperCare is a service provider that helps patients prepare and lodge applications to access superannuation under the ATO’s Compassionate Release program. They are not a superannuation fund — they assist with documentation, compliance and case management so you can focus on your treatment.
SuperCare is not a super fund.
They are a service provider that supports patients in preparing and lodging their ATO CRS application. This can be used to fund dental treatment for:
  • Yourself
  • Your partner or spouse
  • Your dependent child

Treatments That May Qualify

Ellenbrook Smiles offers a range of treatments that may be eligible to be funded using superannuation if the ATO approves the application:

  • Dental Implants — long-term tooth replacement to restore function and confidence.

  • Crowns & Bridges — repair, restore and replace injured or missing teeth.

  • Invisalign® & Clear Aligners — discreet orthodontic treatment for teens and adults.

  • General Dental Care — treatments for dental conditions causing pain or affecting daily life.

  • Wisdom Teeth Removal & Oral Surgery — specialist care for impacted or painful wisdom teeth.

  • Dentures — removable options to replace missing teeth.
