Denplan customers receive the best possible service from a UK-based call centre from the moment they join.

How does a Denplan payment plan work?

A Denplan payment plan is tailored to you. There is no reason to pay for work you don’t need. Why would you? With a dental payment plan from Denplan, your dentist projects what treatments you are likely to need. The treatment costs are set out and you pay a monthly fee to cover the work.

As long as your dentist offers Denplan and any previous work has been completed, you’ll be able to sign up.

On the first visit to your chosen member dentist, they will examine your teeth to make sure you’re dentally fit. Your dentist will discuss the findings with you, set a bespoke monthly price and agree on the contract.

As soon as you receive your welcome pack, you’ll be able to receive treatment.
