Locum dentists in Perth.

Typical dentists rates run from $900 to $2,500 with percentage-of-billings splits, commonly 55 to 70 per cent. Perth metro rates sit in the upper band because demand is deep, and after-hours and weekend loading stack on top. Sessional compares your per-shift yield across agencies and direct Perth workplaces so an under-priced contract surfaces fast.

AHPRA registration with the Dental Board of Australia is the national base. In Western Australia that sits alongside a Working with Children Check from the WA Department of Communities (paid $87.00, valid 3 years) when your role involves children. WorkCover WA covers workers compensation; confirm contractor cover before your first shift. Sessional tracks every credential expiry in one vault.

Sessional is source-agnostic. Agency bookings, direct-to-workplace engagements, hospital bank pools, and percentage-of-billings arrangements across Perth live in one ledger. The PSI diagnostic runs across all sources combined, so the 80 per cent rule exposure is visible across your whole portfolio rather than per agency, with GST classification and ATO cents-per-km tracking on top.

Dentists in Perth often mix percentage-of-billings work (dental, psychology, private clinic) with NDIS-capped work. Sessional tracks gross billings, clinic or lab service fees, the current-year NDIS line cap per item, and the 50 per cent travel rule per line. GST is classified automatically per line from the item type and your registration status.
