Frequently asked questions
Who can apply?

Anyone aged between 16 and 69 who has an NHS Dentist and pays for their treatment.

What will I be covered for?

100% of your dental bill, according to the 3 bands of charges for all NHS dental treatments and up to a generous annual maximum. There are many other dental benefits included. Please refer to the premium and benefits table below.

How do I claim?

Claiming is easy. Submit a short claim form with a valid receipt, either online via the claims portal or by post and receive your money back in a few days.

How will I receive the reimbursement?

You choose. We can either send you a cheque or arrange a bank transfer.

How long will it take for me to receive the reimbursement?

We aim to settle all claims as quickly as possible, usually within 2–3 working days.

I am treated by an NHS dentist. Why would I need a plan?

NHS charges can become expensive. A routine check-up that results in a crown would be £306.80. A filling 6 months later would be £70.70 or a second crown would be another £306.80. With the Smile Assured NHS Dental Plan, you get up to £500 per year to cover these costs. (NHS charges correct, April 2023).

I need treatment now. Will it be covered when I join?

Unfortunately, we’re unable to cover these situations. We only cover new dental conditions that occur after joining.

I have not been to a dentist for more than two years primarily due to Covid-19. Can I join the plan?

Yes. You will need to see a dentist and get any recommended treatments completed at your own expense, initially. Claims for future visits and treatments will then be covered by your plan.

When can I start using this plan?

You are covered for the benefits below the day after joining.

How long can I remain on this plan?

You can stay on the plan and continue to benefit from it for as long as you wish.

How do I join?
