Our members are our most important asset

Dentists’ Provident is owned by its members – the dental professionals. Our founders’ vision was of a company owned by its customers and focused not on profits but on the interests of the dental profession. For over 100 years, we have remained true to these principles and the profits we make are either given back to our members or reinvested for their benefit.

Being there when your clients need us most


Dentists’ Provident have supported our members through a number of different scenarios. Our case studies are for illustration purposes only and not based on real individuals. They are not designed to provide financial advice, nor are they intended to make any recommendations regarding the suitability of our plans for a particular individual.

VIEW CASE STUDIES
Dentists’ Provident’s underwriting may feel stricter, and while it may be a bit more work at the outset, in my experience, when you need them, they will perform. When explaining it like that, our clients understand. When it comes to claims, we find Dentists’ Provident really comes into its own. They offer a slick claims process whilst remembering the client’s needs and truly treating them like an individual.

Paul Haines, Financial Planner at Dental Financial Associates

Dentists’ Provident know the profession and in my experience always try and pay claims rather than avoid them. You may get cheaper products out there, but if they don’t pay out when clients need it to, the product becomes worthless. With Dentists’ Provident I have complete confidence that if a benefit is due to be paid, it will be.
