YOUR CHILD’S DENTAL CARE

Children are born free of dental disease, yet by adulthood 95% of the population has active gum disease and most people have experienced some tooth decay and even tooth loss. It is our belief that disease can be prevented. Our aim is to provide your child with the best dental care available to secure their dental health. We encourage parents to register their children at birth, so that we can see them regularly from an early age to help them grow up with healthy teeth and gums. Children of members of the Cassiobury Care Plan will be entitled to receive the same discount as their parents for private treatments such as mercury-free fillings.

WORLDWIDE TRAUMA & EMERGENCY CALL-OUT INSURANCE

Emergency Call-Out – cover can be provided by any dentist worldwide who agrees to treat you. The cover is for a maximum of £120 per claim (outside the UK £320) for pain relief with an access payable of £25. The total amount reclaimable for call-outs in the UK is £95 and £295 outside the UK. You simply pay the emergency call-out charge to the dentist concerned and collect a receipted invoice. This will then be processed through the practice for reimbursement from the insurers. This is to provide emergency treatment only. You should return to the practice in normal hours for any further treatment required.

Dental Trauma – if you are unfortunate enough to suffer a dental trauma, for example, as a result of road traffic accident or an accident at home or work, the insurance cover is in place for a maximum of £5,000 with a £125 excess applicable for internal trauma and a £25 excess for external trauma. In addition, should you have to stay in hospital as a result of a dental trauma, you will be entitled to claim £50 per day, after the first day. If you are scarred on the face or neck as a result of the accident, you will be entitled to compensation from £50 to £500.

Redundancy Protection (not included in the Registration and Insurance Scheme) – plan premiums paid for up to one year, with a waiting period of 30 days (up to a maximum of £12.50 per month).

Full details of the insurance cover and exclusions are available at the surgery.
