With NHS dentistry increasingly difficult to access, don’t put off treatment any longer. Our patient plan has been created to support patients in getting access to dental care and maintaining your oral health. Join our dental practice plan to get additional benefits you cannot get elsewhere.
Our patient plan was put together last year to help both our regular patients who attend the practice for routine examinations and hygiene appointments, as well as those who have not seen the dentist for a while and are wanting to access care. Our Patient Plan comes with many benefits we will explain below, and offers the best value for money and benefits of any plan in the local area.
What benefits can I expect?
- Split the cost of your dental examination and hygiene cleans monthly, at no extra cost. There are no additional charges to joining our patient plan- no joining fee and you pay the same as you would if you paid at each appointment.
- Joining our patient plan ensures you have access to regular dental and hygiene treatment. We will send you reminders when your next appointment is due, to ensure you keep on track with your appointments.
- Plan members receive 10% off all routine treatment! Discounting treatments is not something we generally offer, so receiving this is a real unique benefit. If you are a patient with periodontal (gum) disease, we can upgrade your hygiene appointments to periodontal treatment and so you would just pay an additional £55 for your treatment every three months. You can find a list of our private treatment fees here.
- Evening and weekend appointments available for Plan members, to ensure we can fit around your schedule. You can also book your appointments online at a time that suits you.
- We will see children of Plan members, who are under the age of 18, for free! This is not a benefit offered at many practices.
In our opinion, the best benefit of all…
- Worldwide Accident & Emergency Insurance. This is one of the biggest reasons we encourage patients who have had large treatment plans or cosmetic work completed to join the Patient Plan. We have seen patients who have had beautiful smile makeovers completed, and then damaged their teeth. Accidents such as the dog jumping up at your face, falling over or hitting your tooth on a glass cannot be predicted and can be costly to fix, which you don’t want when you have just completed treatment. Our patient plan includes insurance to cover these instances, and you just pay a £10 premium. If you are at home, you can come to our practice to receive emergency treatment. If you are away, you can find any local practice and claim back the costs from the Patient Plan. Terms and conditions apply. A full copy of the policy wording can be sent by emailing broom@josephfamilydental.co.uk.
- Our Plan Patients also get access to our website’s members area, where you can access exclusive video guides and advice, as well as 24 hour emergency care. We offer an out of hours service to our patients, where you will receive a free telephone consultation and in-person treatment if you cannot wait until the practice reopens.
