Tell me about Denplan

Denplan is a low-cost insurance-type lookalike capitation scheme in which a patient pays a monthly premium and in return, receives all treatment at no additional cost (with certain specified exceptions). It is proving to be increasingly popular. Denplan, the company, is owned by PPP and this, in turn, is owned by Axa, one of the world's two biggest insurance companies. Denplan is the oldest established capitation system on the market, having been established in 1986. There are about 5000 dentists throughout the country registered as Denplan practitioners covering over a million patients. The big benefit of being covered by Denplan is that there are no sudden and unexpected charges when treatment is needed, you are effectively spreading out the charge over an extended period by paying monthly. Most patients like this arrangement as it allows them to budget their expenditure more effectively.

We offer Denplan cover for those who wish. It is a requirement of entry into Denplan that you are dentally fit at the time of registration and so you will be required to complete all outstanding treatment first, either Privately or on the NHS as appropriate.
