Questions and Answers for Denplan Essentials
Q. What are the benefits of Denplan Essentials to me?
A. Denplan Essentials enables you to budget for the cost of the dental care required to monitor you oral health (examinations, x-rays and hygiene treatment), with the additional back up of Denplan’s worldwide 24-hour Helpline and accident & emergency insurance.
Q. What if I need dental treatment, is this covered by Denplan Essentials?

Q. Is there any way that I could cover the cost of my treatment?

For further details please ask a member of our practice team.
