It’s a fact – no one likes going to the dentist. We’d like to see someone who does, but we can give your employees something to smile about with a BUPA dental cover plan.
Dental cover is one of the most popular employee benefits, and for a limited time, BUPA are offering new customers a 25% discount on new dental cover policies.
Furthermore, they are also offering a 10% price beater for those looking to switch dental cover provider.
They are also offering a new triage service who can now guarantee BUPA dental insurance members a local appointment.
Oral hygiene is incredibly important, and it has been inextricably linked to overall health and wellbeing, but there’s a national dentistry crisis occurring due to the impact of the pandemic.
According to Healthwatch, there has been a 22% rise in calls and complaints about the availability and affordability of NHS dentistry between January and March 2021. There has also been a disparity between demographics most affected in terms of socio-economic groups and those from ethnic minorities.
Healthwatch also reported that dental surgeries are seeing waiting lists grow exponentially, with some patients unable to access treatment. Some patients are told to wait until 2024 for an appointment to see their dentists. Dentists are also concerned that not having regular check-ups could lead to more serious and complex health conditions.
However, with BUPA’s simple and flexible dental plan, employees can make the most of this comprehensive policy to help manage their oral hygiene.
BUPA has over 480 dental practices making it one of the leading private dental services in the UK. It means that patients access a wealth of expert knowledge with more than 2,500 dental professionals to call on. In addition, BUPA will guarantee appointments through its Dental Care support line.
The BUPA Dental Plan is very flexible and easy to manage. It allows employees the freedom to help them keep on top of their oral hygiene with a dentist of their choice.
The plan has five levels of cover, and when it comes to making a claim, the process is simple, and there’s no form filling or fuss.
