HBF dental benefits made simple
Using your dental benefits at Dental Paradiso is refreshingly straightforward, especially if you’re with HBF.

What is HBF?
HBF is a major Australian private health insurer offering extras cover, including dental services. Dental rebates through HBF reduce out-of-pocket costs for eligible treatments, depending on your plan, level of cover, and type of service.
Dental Paradiso welcomes HBF members and works to make claiming rebates straightforward and convenient.
Covered dental services
HBF rebates may apply to a range of treatments, including:
- Preventative care: Check-ups, scale and clean, fluoride treatments, and X-rays.
- General restorative care: Fillings, simple extractions, and periodontal treatments.
- Major dental care: Crowns, bridges, dentures, root canals, and implants, depending on your fund and plan.
- Orthodontics: Available on selected plans with applicable waiting periods.
Our team can advise which services are eligible for rebates under your HBF cover.
Dental cover considerations
- Waiting periods: Certain treatments, particularly major dental and orthodontics, may have waiting periods.
- Annual limits: Funds set yearly maximums for different types of dental services.
- Preferred providers: HBF rebates can be higher when visiting approved or preferred dentists.
Patients are encouraged to discuss their coverage with our staff to understand potential rebates before commencing treatment.
