Denplan Essentials

What is it?

Denplan Essentials Care is a comprehensive preventive and restorative oral healthcare plan for patients and includes Supplementary Insurance cover. It allows you to set the patients' fees dependent on their oral health.

How it works

Denplan Essentials will be tailored to fit your needs: Your dentist will decide the number of check-ups, description of the practice team, x-rays you're likely to need on an annual basis. Treatment is always at the discretion of the practice team.

Your practice team will then let you know your monthly fee to spread the cost of your ongoing routine care, apply upon joining.

Why might my fees change?

Your dental practice may review their fees from time to time, in line with business costs, professional guidelines and inflation. Your fees can also increase in relation to the amount of treatment you need over a period of time, as they are designed to reflect your oral health needs.

The best way to find out why your fees have changed is to speak to your registered dentist. They will be able to talk you through your plan and ensure that the care you are receiving is the best option for you.

How Denplan Essentials collects your payments

Denplan Essentials collects your payments, your fees are actually set by your dental team. When you register, Denplan Essentials may then review them with you after a set period to reflect any changes in your oral health or due to their business costs, professional regulations or inflation.

Who can tell me more about my fees?

To find out more about your fees and your current payment plan, speak to your dental team. You could then call or even pop in to see them. There’s no need to wait until your next appointment. They will be able to explain your plan, your payments, and the care that you’re currently entitled to receive as part of your payment plan.

Why do I pay for specialist/referral treatment?

At some point your dental team may refer you to a specialist for treatment, such as an orthodontist or oral surgery expert. As your payment plan covers the care provided by your registered dentist, it only covers the specialist treatment is not part of your regular care with your team.

Does claiming on my Supplementary Insurance affect my fee?

Making a claim on your Supplementary Insurance that is included in your Denplan Essentials payment plan doesn’t affect your payments. However, if your oral health changes as the result of a dental injury, you may need an increased level of care in the future, and your dentist may review your fee.
