Cleft Palate

[englewestern]

Hello,

I was born with a cleft palate and am now an adult.
I live in Perth and am covered by Medicare's Cleft Lip & Palate Scheme which contributes to fees I incur due to dentistry related to my cleft.
Medicare are unable to give me a list of any dentists that are covered by this scheme and therefor I have to ring around all dentists and ask if they are covered by the scheme. No support groups are able to give me the information (legally) so I was wondering if any parents on here no of any dentists in perth that are covered by this scheme. Your help is much appreciated!

I can't help with names but there is a Dental Association that you can call. Surely they would have a list. Found this while googling for Australian Dental Association (WA Branch) Inc:

Believe it or not I have already contacted them to no avail.
No one can provide me with a list - not WA densits Assoc and not even Cleftpals - they make it so difficult.
If anybody has any ideas of any dentists in Perth under the scheme please let me know.
