Dental Members Australia, was founded in 2011 by local Brisbane dentist, Dr. Safa Souzani. He was frustrated that his patients who needed the most dental work couldn't actually start treatment because of the up-front costs.

DMA created a cloud platform to enable patients to pay for treatment in weekly or fortnightly payments. 'DMA Dental Vouchers'. This voucher system combined with Capped-Fee Pricing is the first of its kind in Australia. Dental Members partnered with 1300Smiles and now also owns its own dental clinics.
