Near Ryde

Children's dentistry for Ryde families

We take our time with children. We explain each step in plain words, let them hold the mirror and look at the instruments first, and stop for a break when they need one.

Most children see one of our oral health therapists, who look after kids' check-ups and cleans and work alongside our dentists. Bring your child's Medicare card if they may be eligible for the Child Dental Benefits Schedule.

First check-up, $99

For ages 2 to 9, or no gap with most health funds. Under 2s are seen free.

Children's dentistry

Bulk billing under CDBS

Eligible children can have basic dental care bulk billed, up to the government cap.

How CDBS works

Fissure seals and fluoride

Sealants protect the deep grooves in back teeth, where most childhood decay starts.

Growth and bite checks

We watch how the jaw grows and the adult teeth come through, and suggest an orthodontic assessment when it would help.

Why we opened Lumi

We wanted a practice where people feel comfortable walking in. You shouldn't feel rushed in the chair, and you shouldn't have to guess what something will cost.

Lumi is independently owned, and every dentist and oral health therapist here is AHPRA registered. If it has been years since your last check-up, that's fine. We'll have a look, tell you what we see and give you a written quote before anything is done.

Your clinician may be a dentist or an oral health therapist (OHT). Our OHTs are university-trained and AHPRA registered, and look after check-ups, X-rays, cleans, gum care and children's teeth. They work alongside our dentists from the same plan, and if you need a filling, crown or other treatment, we book you in with a dentist.
