This is a ‘gold standard , must have product .
This is a ‘gold standard ‘ comprehensive policy and has every attribute anyone could ask for in an indemnity product. It has the added benefit of all the resources of the BDA. Also excellent value for money . A real ‘ no brainier’ .

Smooth transfer to BDA Indemnity
Just switched over to BDA Indemnity, and full credit to BDA for creating such a unique Indemnity cover for U.K. dentists. I have been with Dental Protection since I qualified, and so glad to have the opportunity to join BDA Indemnity for its contractual and occurrence based cover.

I had an amazingly helpful experience…
I had an amazingly helpful experience with the BDA one to one advice. I was given very supportive advice, had letters checked and drafted in resolving a workplace issue.
Those who aren't BDA members should consider the widespread assistance provided by the BDA from learning, networking, practice support and contractual advice. I would definitely recommend that it is worth being a member. On a side personal note, Jacinta McKiernan from the Practice Management Team is absolutely amazing- if you need advice, she's the person!
