Geraldton care that feels familiar for people who want the visit to still feel personal

Yes. Chapman Road Dental Clinic is welcoming new patients at 100 Chapman Rd, Geraldton WA. If you are booking for yourself, a child, a parent, or someone who has not been to the dentist in a while, reception can help you choose the right appointment type.

You can book online if you are ready, or call (08) 9964 3577 if you would rather ask a few questions first. Bring your health fund card if you have one, and let us know about any medical history, medication, dental anxiety, or urgent symptoms when you book.

A first appointment starts with a conversation. We ask what brought you in, what has changed, what you are worried about, and whether there is anything you want handled gently or explained slowly.

The dentist will examine your teeth and gums, recommend X-rays only when they are useful, and talk through what they can see. If treatment is suggested, you should leave with the next step, likely costs, timing, and any choices explained before treatment begins. You can also read more on our new patients page.

Yes. Online booking is there when you know what you need, but you do not have to work it out alone. Call (08) 9964 3577 and reception can help you choose between a check-up, emergency appointment, child appointment, or a longer conversation about treatment options.

This is often the easiest path if you feel nervous, have not been in years, are booking for a child, or are unsure whether something is urgent.

Yes. Children, parents, grandparents, and whole families are welcome. For children, appointments can include a check-up, clean when appropriate, growth and tooth development checks, mouthguard conversations, and practical home-care guidance.

If you are booking for a child who feels unsure, tell reception when you call. The visit can be paced around helping them understand the chair, the mirror, and what will happen next. Learn more about children's dentistry in Geraldton.

Yes. Bring your health fund card to your appointment and reception can help process eligible claims on-site with HICAPS. Your rebate depends on your fund, your level of cover, waiting periods, and the treatment item numbers involved.

If cost is part of the decision, ask before treatment starts. The team can provide an estimate, explain what is known and unknown, and talk through payment timing before you commit to the next step.

Eligible children may be able to use the Child Dental Benefits Schedule for basic dental services. Eligibility is set by Services Australia and can depend on family circumstances, age, and government payment criteria.

If you think your child may be eligible, call reception before booking or check directly with Services Australia. We can help you understand what information to bring and can discuss any expected gap before the appointment proceeds.

Tell us when you book. Dental nerves are common, especially if you have had a difficult appointment before or have avoided care for a long time. The first job is to understand what would make the visit feel more manageable.

The team can slow the appointment down, explain each step before it happens, agree on pauses, and focus first on assessment and planning. You can also call before booking if a short conversation would help you feel more prepared.

Chapman Road Dental Clinic is at 100 Chapman Rd, Geraldton WA 6530. The clinic is open Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm.

If you are coming from Rangeway, Spalding, Wonthella, Beachlands, Drummond Cove, or elsewhere around Geraldton, call (08) 9964 3577 if you need directions, parking guidance, or help choosing the right appointment type.
