WHAT IT IS

What Denplan Care Covers

Denplan Care is a monthly membership plan provided by Simplyhealth Professionals (Denplan). It's the most comprehensive of the Denplan schemes, designed to cover almost all of your dental needs through a single regular payment.
The monthly fee is calculated specifically for you, based on a risk-banded assessment of your current dental health. Patients with healthy stable teeth pay less; patients with more complex histories pay more. Either way, the cost is calculated to save you money compared to paying for the same care visit-by-visit at our standard private fees.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

What's Included in Denplan Care

The detail of what's included is set out in the Denplan Care patient handbook you'll receive when you join, and in our Scheme Rules. The list above is the headline coverage.

WHAT'S NOT INCLUDED

What's Not Included

A few things sit outside the standard Denplan Care coverage and would be charged separately:
  • Implants
  • Orthodontic treatment (Invisalign)
  • Cosmetic-only work (whitening, veneers placed for cosmetic rather than restorative reasons)
  • Facial aesthetics (anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers)
  • Sedation
  • Laboratory fees for some specialist work
  • Treatment carried out by external specialists
For these treatments, members typically get a discount on standard private fees. We'll always tell you what's covered and what isn't before any treatment starts.

HOW THE MONTHLY FEE IS CALCULATED

How Your Monthly Fee Is Set

Denplan Care uses a "risk band" system. Every patient is assessed against a standard set of dental health criteria, which produces a band ranging from A (healthiest, lowest cost) up through D and E (more complex history, higher cost). The band determines your monthly fee.
The assessment is fair and clinically based. Two patients with identical dental health will be in the same band wherever they are in the country. The fee is then set by the practice based on the standard private treatment costs that would otherwise apply to a patient at that band.
You can ask to be reassessed at any time. If your dental health improves significantly (say, gum disease that was active becomes stable), we can move you to a lower band and your monthly fee goes down.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions About Denplan Care

That depends on your individual dental risk band, which we assess at your initial examination. Once we know your band, we can give you the exact monthly figure before you commit to anything. Patients with healthy stable teeth pay less; more complex cases pay more.

Not exactly - it's a maintenance scheme rather than insurance. The monthly fee covers an agreed package of dental care from your registered dentist (us). There's no claim process; treatment that's included is simply done.

Yes. Denplan Care includes worldwide dental emergency cover through the Denplan supplementary insurance scheme - so if you have a dental emergency abroad, there's cover for emergency treatment up to specified limits. The exact terms are in the Denplan member handbook.

The plan covers what's included from day one of membership. There's no waiting period for normal coverage. The only exception is the supplementary insurance element (worldwide emergency cover), which has some standard waiting and limitation terms documented by Denplan.

Yes - though it's worth thinking about why. If your dental health has improved and you genuinely don't need the broader coverage, Essentials is cheaper. If you're switching just to save money, you're likely to end up paying more if something does go wrong. We can talk through whether it makes sense for you.

Denplan operates on monthly Direct Debit only - that's how Simplyhealth Professionals runs the scheme. We don't have any control over the payment method on this side.

Your Denplan membership can be transferred to another participating practice in the UK. We'll do the paperwork at our end and Denplan will help you find a new practice if you need help.
