ACC Dental Injury Care

Get treatment for dental injuries covered under ACC with expert guidance.

About the Treatment

We are ACC-affiliated and can assess and treat dental injuries caused by accidents or trauma. If you’ve had a fall, sports injury, or another accident affecting your teeth or jaw, we can complete ACC documentation and provide appropriate treatment.

Services may include examinations, X-rays, temporary stabilisation, and definitive repairs depending on coverage approval. The key advantage is financial support for injury-related dental treatment.

Not all conditions are covered, and approval is required. Alternatives include private treatment where ACC criteria are not met. After care depends on the injury and may include splinting care, soft diet, and follow-up reviews.

I had terrible experiences with dentists growing up, so as an adult I only go to dentists under duress. Tried 4 dentists and I finally struck gold with Dr Asa and his team! Now I have no issues going for my yearly check, I also am going through Angel aligners treatment because it's actually more affordable ($4,000 k cheaper than what I was quoted elsewhere). Dr Asa is super gentle and explains things well, his assistants must be telepaths because they always know what's needed, and Hola at reception is a lean mean efficient machine 💪 Oh and he has Netflix on the ceiling for distraction 😆 highly recommend if you're a wimp like me.

I hate going to the dentist! Dentist Roy was gentle and did a great job on 2 fillings, I couldn't feel my face so it was great that they said come back tomorrow for adjustment if my bite wasn't right. Its great they said that without me having to ask. 10/10.

Had my teeth cleaned today with a scale and polish! The dentist was amazing and so understanding! Would highly recommend this dentist as he knows what he’s doing and is very gentle! Would recommend 1000%.

I’ve been to a couple of dentists but this one is the best! Great staff who took care of my needs. The principal dentist Mr Asa Vete took the time to listen to my worries and explained my options. Much appreciated! Thank you and highly recommend.

I was feeling so nervous and embarrassed about my teeth after pregnancy and Dr Asa was so caring and understanding. I felt super validated and we have made a plan to fix my teeth in a way that works both financially and time wise for me. Thanks team!

Made my first visit back to the dentist after 10 years. Full mouth check up explained clearly, needed a root canal but the team made sure I was comfortable. Puts YOU first before money. Such a great team!
