Bupa Dental is a network of over 170 dental clinics in capital cities and regional towns across Australia.
Practising at a Bupa Dental clinic means you run your own business while we provide the services and support you need to deliver quality patient care.
Why practice at Bupa Dental
Set up for success
We’re part of Bupa, which includes Bupa Health Insurance, Bupa Optical, and Bupa Villages and Aged Care.
Bupa Health Insurance is the only Australian health fund that gives you access to our 4.1 million health insurance customers. That's a significant pool of customers we're dedicated to bringing your way.
Not only that but Bupa Health Insurance recently introduced Members First Ultimate – its top tier dental offering for customers that is only available at Bupa Dental. Members First Ultimate lets Bupa customers with eligible extras enjoy up to 2 free check-ups and cleans a year1 and is already proving to be a huge success.
And although we can’t make guarantees, having a strong, dedicated ‘marketing machine’ behind you means a healthy flow of new and return patients and an attractive income for you.
Full autonomy
All clinical and treatment decisions are yours – including whether to specialise. You’ll also have the freedom and flexibility to design and run your practice.
No financial KPIs or patient quotas
Set your own goals to grow your own practice. Take the time you need with each patient, so they experience your full expertise and top-quality care.
A transparent and fair relationship
We are the service provider and you are our client. This means you engage and pay us for providing the facilities and services. You remain an independent business owner and we’ll be upfront about our fees from the beginning.
Professional growth
Enjoy access to helpful resources and regular CPD and training opportunities. You’ll also get the chance to network with your peers and step up to leadership opportunities like being a mentor and joining the Dental Advisory Panel.
“There’s been more support here. There’s always someone you can call if you need to. I just feel Bupa has my back.”
