approach means that treatment is kept to a minimum.
Under
the Denplan Care scheme your monthly payment includes
the following services from your dentist:
- All
dental check-ups
- X-rays
- All
necessary fillings
- Scaling
& polishing or other hygiene treatment
- Preventative
advice, therapy and counselling
- All
routine extractions
- Periodontal
and surgical treatment

hour worldwide Helpline
- Crowns/bridges/dentures/inlays/root
fillings (all exclude laboratory fees)
- Accident
cover of up to £10,000 per incident
- Emergency
treatment up to £630 per year
- £12,000
cover against oral cancer for under 60's and £6,000
for over 60's (including smokers)
- Complaints
handling and arbitration
On
joining the scheme a member of the dental team will
work with you to determine the number of examinations,
hygiene appointments and x-rays you are likely to need
each year - a fixed monthly fee will then be agreed
based on the condition of your teeth and gums.
The
fee is usually taken via a direct debit so once you
have set it up, you don't need to worry about it.
At
the beginning of your programme there is a one-off registration
charge, equivalent to one month's fee which covers initial
registration and administration.
Many
of our patients are members of the scheme and find it
a simple and effective way of maintaining the health
of their teeth with regular visits to the practice.
It provides easy to manage financial solutions to dental
care and peace of mind in the event of an emergency.
About
Denplan Dentists
Denplan
member dentists conform to strict codes of practice
as mentioned earlier. These include adhering to our
own strict standards of professionalism as well as conforming
to the Rules of Membership and Code of Practice established
by Denplan. All member dentists take part in the Denplan
Practice Quality Programme which helps us to keep up-to-date
with standards of care and allows us to communicate
with fellow members.
Entry
into the scheme is not cut-and-dried for dentists. The
practice is examined and assessed, as are individual
dentists. Being a member practice really is a seal of
quality.
Further
information about Denplan schemes can be found on their

talk to a member of the dental staff who will be pleased
to provide you with further information and point you
in the right direction.
