Bupa Dental

The launch of Bupa Dental is part of Bupa’s commitment to be a health and care partner for our customers. Bupa is committed to making a difference by making high quality and great value dental care easily accessible to customers.

Oral health is one of the cornerstones of overall health, but it’s an area that’s often neglected. Tooth decay is the most prevalent health problem in Australia¹, affecting nearly 50% of Australian children by the age of 12¹, while Australian adults lose 3 million hours of paid work or study each year due to dental issues².

In fact, 90% of all tooth loss is due to tooth decay and gum disease¹ conditions that are largely preventable with the appropriate care.
