Dental Care for WorkCover and TAC Patients
At Dental Care Group, we understand that dental injuries resulting from workplace or transport accidents can be both physically and emotionally challenging. Our team provides comprehensive dental care for patients eligible under WorkCover Insurance or the Transport Accident Commission (TAC), helping you restore comfort, function, and confidence as part of your recovery journey.
We work closely with medical practitioners, case managers, and insurers to ensure your treatment plan is streamlined, transparent, and aligned with your approved claim.
Understanding WorkCover and TAC Dental Claims
If you’ve sustained a dental injury due to a workplace or transport accident, you may be eligible for treatment cost coverage through:
-
WorkCover: for injuries sustained in the course of employment.
-
TAC: for dental injuries related to motor vehicle or transport accidents in Victoria.
Our administrative team is experienced in supporting patients through these processes and can assist with documentation, treatment estimates, and communication with WorkSafe or the TAC.
