About Dental Payment Plans
Our Care Plan is a monthly payment plan which provides cover for your routine (check-ups, x-rays and hygiene visits) and restorative (crowns, bridges or fillings) dental treatment. The amount you pay is based on your oral health and how much dental treatment you will need. After an initial assessment you will be placed into one of five categories. This will determine the monthly fee.
Our Care Plan includes dental injury and dental emergency cover and mouth cancer cover (not immediately available). You will also have access to Denplan’s 24-Hour Worldwide Dental Emergency Helpline.
The Importance of Your Oral Health
“Dental decay is one of the most common chronic diseases in the world. It can have a huge effect on general overall health and yet it is entirely preventable, which is why it is so important that patients prioritise their oral health” Roger Matthews, Chief Dental Officer,
Preventive dentistry is the foundation on which Denplan was built. A dental payment plan enables you and your dentist to focus on regular care to help minimise the risk factors before they cause pain and may need costly treatment.
We recommend that our patients follow a programme of preventive care using the skill of our practice team and the support of a dental payment plan.
- Your dentist will talk to you about the dental plans so that you can choose which plan.
- A dentist at our practice will then carry out a dental assessment. The amount you pay will be decided by your dentist and is based on your oral health and how much dental treatment you will need. The payment will be collected monthly.
Family discounts
Dental payment plans can benefit the whole family. Where more than one member of the family is registered at the same practice and payments are made under one single direct debit, the following discounts apply:

Method of payment
Following your initial dental assessment, you will know exactly how much your regular payments will be. You can choose to pay by monthly direct debit or by a single annual payment. There is also a one-off, initial registration fee equivalent to one month’s payment.
