FREE CAMPAIGN RESOURCE

The 2026 Dental PHI Extras Campaign Kit

Email templates, SMS scripts, Google Ads copy, keyword lists, and a week-by-week campaign plan — everything you need to capture patients before their dental extras expire December 31.

$2.5 billion That's how much private health insurance funds paid for dental services last year in Australia. Dental is the #1 reason Australians claim on their extras cover.

And 30–45% of annual new dental patient bookings come from the September–December window.

Corporate dental chains launch structured campaigns on September 1. They increase budgets 50%. They extend hours. They capture the demand that independent practices leave sitting on the table.

This kit gives you the same campaign infrastructure — ready to deploy.
