Dental Insurance
Dental insurance policies can cover routine check-ups as well as the costs of dental work, including dental injuries and emergencies. You pay the dentist first, then claim back your money. You can have the treatments at either an NHS practice or at a private clinic. You may have to wait for a period of time after buying the insurance before you can claim, but some policies may allow you to claim immediately for some treatments.
Bupa Dental Care practices will provide receipts for patients who wish to submit a claim against a dental insurance policy. Many Bupa Dental Care practices offer up to a 20% discount to Bupa dental insurance customers and can submit completed claims directly to Bupa Insurance Limited, reducing your time and effort spent claiming costs back from the insurer.
