Dental

It’s well known that finding treatment via a dentist within the NHS is increasingly difficult. As a result it’s a fact that many more people have to pay for the higher costs of treatment on a private basis. Or in some cases go without check ups or treatment, which simply causes larger, more significant problems later down the line.

And even if a NHS dentist is found the costs of their treatment is also rising. It’s really no surprise then that cover for dental charges is an increasingly popular company provided benefit and is very well received by staff.

Alpha Healthcare recommends a cash plan basis that offers real advantage at a surprisingly low cost and can include:

• Immediate cover (no initial oral check necessary)
• Choice of any dentist
• Routine examinations
• Hygiene treatments
• Remedial or restorative treatments
• Accidental damage
• Dental emergency

With the right plan selection benefits are easy to understand with a very straight forward and efficient claim process.

There are real advantages to you in addition to helping improve retention and recruitment. For example “front line” staff can be encouraged to improve oral hygiene and appearance.

And with a focus on preventative care with provision for check ups you may find future absenteeism is reduced with employees taking less time off, as more convenient times are available with reduced time in waiting rooms.
