Denplan in the UK has 6,500 member dentists and 1.6 million patients on payment plans as well as 1,700 corporate insurance schemes. Atlas Healthcare now offers corporate insurance plans and individual plans through several Denplan dentists locally.

Put simply, Denplan is a payment plan where a patient is assessed by a Denplan dentist and offered a fixed fee for whatever routine and restorative care is required that year. It also includes insurance against dental accident, overseas emergency and mouth cancer cover and an overseas helpline. Group regular dental insurance products are also available from Atlas Healthcare.

Good oral health isn’t just about avoiding fillings and toothache; it’s an important part of overall health and well-being. As we age, our teeth and gums naturally deteriorate, so the earlier we start looking after them the better.

Denplan encourages the move to preventive dentistry – where patients see their dentist regularly to improve oral health, and minimise intervention to avoid costly and painful interventions.
