COVID-19 Policy

Prime Children’s Dental Care has safety measures in place to ensure a safe and comfortable dental visit for you and your family.

 
 

Accredited Practice

In 2014, Prime Children’s Dental Care was the first WA Specialist Paediatric Dental Group to successfully pass the process of accreditation.

Health organisations are recognised for their commitment to best practice, quality, systems and processes, and continual improvement. Meeting the governing standards is acknowledged with the award of accreditation.

Being QIP accredited means that we are committed to providing safe and quality service.
