A Stress-Free Solution for Unexpected Dental Costs

Learn How to Use Your SuperFund

What Is a Super Fund?

A superannuation fund, or super fund, acts as a financial safety net designed to help you save and invest for your future retirement. These funds grow over time by investing in stocks, bonds, and property, with the added bonus of tax benefits and the option to add extra money whenever possible.

Many people use their super fund to cover dental surgery costs for themselves or their families. The super fund offers an excellent option for unexpected expenses, providing relief during tough times. In a world where life’s demands can be financially overwhelming, tapping into your super funds provides a means to manage costs effectively, allowing you to navigate difficult circumstances and move forward.

How Do I Use My Super Fund?

Using your super fund to cover dental costs involves applying for the Compassionate Release of Super (CRS) through the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). You must first assess your eligibility by aligning with the ATO’s criteria, typically indicating severe financial hardship or compassionate grounds. Following eligibility confirmation, gather essential documentation, including a treatment urgency letter from our dental team and relevant medical reports.
