FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Under specific circumstances, individuals may apply to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) for the Compassionate Release of Superannuation (CRS) to cover essential dental care. However, please note that early release of superannuation is strictly regulated, assessed on a case-by-case basis by the ATO, and is not guaranteed.

Eligibility requires meeting strict ATO criteria, which generally includes demonstrating that the treatment is necessary to treat severe, life-threatening, or acute/chronic pain, and that you do not have the financial means to pay for the treatment through other sources.

A comprehensive clinical assessment and supporting documentation from two registered medical or dental practitioners are required as part of your application. Dr. Zielinski & Associates can provide a clinical assessment and formal treatment plan if appropriate, but final approval rests solely with the ATO.

Any cosmetic work if definitely not allowed under the scheme.

Less than you may think. We provide high-end dentistry at reasonable fees for the quality and experience provided.

We tailor treatment plans to your needs and budget.

Many simple procedures may be done without anaesthetic.

Injections do not hurt if injected very slowly allowing the tissues to stretch and a single needle should only be used for one injection as on the second piercing is actually blunt hence it hurts.

Pain is avoided by fixing things before infection sets in so do not put it off until it does!

We offer sedation for the very anxious patients. The anaesthetist sedates you to a point where you are half asleep and do not remember the procedure allowing us to do the whole treatment in one or two sessions.

Studies show that 2 minutes of brushing with an electric toothbrush is equivalent to 6 minutes of accurate brushing with a manual brush. Thus we recommend a soft electric.

We have appointments set aside daily for new patients and emergencies. We also offer an afterhours service, which we have had running for over 20 years!

Yes, we offer innovative low interest financing solutions. Feel free to ask us how.
