TAC Dental
What is TAC dental treatment?
TAC dental treatment refers to dental services funded by the Transport Accident Commission (TAC) for those who’ve sustained injuries to their teeth, gums, or jaw as a result of a road accident in Victoria. This support is designed to ensure that the cost of your recovery doesn’t become an added burden during an already distressing time.
Melbourne Dental Studio is a TAC dental clinic Melbourne patients can rely on for both immediate relief and long-term restorative care. Whether you have suffered a broken tooth or require complex procedures, we work alongside the TAC to provide the motor accident dental treatment necessary to restore your smile’s function and appearance. If you have a valid TAC claim, dentist appointments can often be organised quickly to ensure your injuries are addressed while the dental tissues are most likely to recover.
Key treatments covered under a TAC dental claim
The TAC covers a wide range of services to help you return to your pre-accident health:
- Emergency Care: Immediate appointment with a dentist for accident injuries to manage pain, stabilise toothache, and treat facial trauma.
- Restorative Services: High-quality tooth extraction or root canal treatment for teeth severely damaged in a collision.
- Prosthetics & Implants: Transport accident dental treatment often includes crowns, bridges, and dental implants to replace teeth that have been knocked out or broken.
- Diagnostic Imaging: Advanced 3D scans and X-rays to assess the full extent of jaw and root damage.
Surgical Procedures: In-room oral surgery for complex injuries resulting from a motor vehicle accident.

Long-term recovery
and maintenance
Injuries from a road accident can have long-lasting effects on your oral health. Following your initial transport accident dental treatment, regular monitoring is vital to ensure that crowns, implants, or root-treated teeth remain stable.
The TAC may continue to support your dental needs if they are directly related to the original accident. Our team will help you document any changes in your dental health to ensure your TAC dental claim remains active and accurate for as long as you need it.
