The Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) is a government initiative that covers all or part of basic dental services for children under 18 years old, to the value of $1,052 across two consecutive years. CDBS supports parents of all backgrounds to provide their children with quality dental care. At Renew Dental Lounge, we believe in building a foundation for great dental habits as soon as your little ones get their first teeth, we’ll happily check your child’s eligibility!
