Please note, you cannot claim for general or major dental treatments like an Extras product. DentalPass only gives you access to lower, agreed rates on preventative treatments, so you can save while visiting the dentist.

*Average dental fees and member savings are based on data from the Australian Dental Association (ADA) and nib's dental network rate. These examples are guides only and your individual treatment circumstances may vary. Estimated savings consider up to $50 money back benefit but not the membership price.

^Memberships can take up to 2 business days to activate.

#As of July 2023. Providers occasionally leave our network so it's important to check before booking to avoid disappointment.

What treatments are included?

DentalPass offers agreed rates† on preventative dental services through our network of participating dental practitioners. Unlike Extras cover, which pays benefits towards a wide range of dental treatments - DentalPass lets you access certain treatments at pre-agreed prices that are usually lower than the standard fee, helping you save money when you visit the dentist.

These may include treatments such as X-rays, examinations, cleaning and polishing, fluoride applications, tooth extractions, fillings, crowns, root canals, veneers, bridgework, implants and dentures.

Plus, you'll also receive $25 back on eligible dental check-ups2 - up to two per year - when you visit a dentist in our network.

Orthodontia is not included in DentalPass.

†Fees reviewed annually and subject to change. Check Find a Provider, if provider is eligible. Annual limits, waiting period, Fund Rules and Provider Terms and Conditions apply.

Got a question?
Here are some answers

¹nib First Choice providers (i.e., our network) offer competitive fees for many commonly claimed treatments and consultations. These fees are reviewed at least annually and are subject to change. Always check nib.com.au/find-a-provider before booking to see if your provider participates or simply ask your provider if they are part of nib's network at the time of booking. Providers occasionally leave the nib First Choice network so it's important to check before booking to avoid disappointment. Annual limits and T&Cs apply.

²Eligible treatments during a check-up include oral exams (item numbers 011, 012, and 013 only). Payment of benefits is subject to nib's Fund Rules and Policy Booklet, the membership being activated and annual limits.

³Price is based on a Single who wants to start their cover on 06 October 2025. The price includes the Australian Government Rebate for a Single aged < 65 with a taxable income of $101,000 or less in the financial year ending 30 June 2026, 4% direct debit discount.
