# Can I use my superannuation for implant treatment?
**Quick answer:** Possibly, through compassionate release of superannuation. The decision is made by the ATO.
Compassionate release lets you access some of your superannuation early to pay for necessary dental treatment when you cannot afford it otherwise. Implants and All-on-4 are among the most common reasons people apply.
## How it works
- Have your Implant Consultation and receive an itemised treatment plan
- A Treatment Coordinator helps you prepare the supporting documentation
- You apply to the ATO, who decide whether to approve the release
- If approved, your super fund releases the funds
## Worth thinking about first
It takes time, so it is not an option for urgent treatment. And money taken out of super now is money that is not there later, which deserves proper thought rather than a quick decision.
**Note:** We can help with the treatment plan and documentation. We cannot give you financial advice about whether this is the right choice for you, and speaking to a financial adviser may be worthwhile.
