Denplan Essentials

Denplan Essentials is a total preventive programme that provides you with advice from your dentist about healthy diet, avoiding tooth decay and generally how to maintain healthy teeth and gums. The Denplan Essentials scheme covers regular checkups with your dentist, hygiene treatment including scaling and polishing, dental x-rays and preventative dental advice from your dentist.

This approach means that treatment is kept to a minimum.

Joining a Denplan Scheme

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 making payment straight forward.

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. Denplan usually have monthly offers for new registrations.

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.
