Our Practice Plan
From 1st November 2019 we transferred from SimplyHealth (Denplan) to our own practice-branded plans. Being a member of one of our dental plans is a great way to look after your oral health and allows you to budget for your dental care.
The benefits to you:
- Allows you to spread the cost of your dental care rather than having unexpected or large payments;
- Convenient payment by monthly direct debit;
- More cost effective than private pay-as-you go treatment;
- Encourages preventive dentistry – meaning you could be less likely to need additional treatment due to any problems being caught early;
- Reduces the risk of oral disease and dental decay due to regular examinations;
- Provides cover for accidental damage to your teeth and emergency treatment when away from home or outside of normal hours.
What our Dental Plans include:
Our Basic Membership Plan is suitable for patients who have a high level of oral hygiene and a minimal sugar diet, as well as a low level of dental treatment previously. Any occasional dental treatment required for plan members on this plan will be provided with a 15% discount off our private fees.
Basic Membership Plan benefits:
- 1-2 routine dental examinations per year;
- 1-2 routine dental hygiene visits per year;
- Routine bitewings for screening (intra-oral x-rays) as clinically required;
- 15% discount on all routine dental treatments;
- Worldwide Dental Accident & Emergency cover;
- Starts from £8,30 / month (subject to once or twice per year visit).
Our Comprehensive Membership Plan is very popular among our patients as it is much more cost effective than private pay-as-you-go so offers great value for money and has a wide range of benefits:
- 2 routine dental examinations per year;

- Routine bitewings for screening and diagnosis (intra-oral x-rays) as clinically required;
