Extremely good service in dental emergency

Contacted Denplan as had dental emergency whilst driving NC500, miles from dentists. Lady was extremely helpful and friendly, explaining the process for finding me an appointment. She explained all costs and arranged for an appt the next morning. This was fantastic service. So pleased to be in Denplan.

Renewed for change of address

I have been with Denplan for over 15 years and had no problems getting treatment with Dentists. I recently moved address and area code and although I had to renew my Denplan this was not a major issue as this was done for me by the receptionist at my new dentist and I am grateful for this.

Can't really fault denplan but the dentist are a different matter surely they should hold dentist to account for poor service. Paid for 20+ years with no problems with teeth when I do have a problem can't get a appointment for months despite being in severe pain which ended up costing fortune at emergency appointment elsewhere

Severe lack of tact after death of client

It may be a good dental insurance plan BUT their lack of tact , understanding and incomplete instructions when my father died and I needed to cancel his policy and maintain my mother's was rather pathetic an lacked empathy.
We even received mail addressed to the person that they knew was deceased regarding future cover for my mother.
I've spent more time on this one company than i did organising his funeral!!
Not impressed.

James at Denplan organised an emergency appointment at a local private dentist very speedily. Part of my tooth had fallen out so needed to be seen that day. He was efficient and very sympathetic to my problem. He deserves a medal!!!

Excellent Service from Denplan

Incredible professional response from Denplan. Helpful and courteous advice from Kylie followed by a return call from James with an emergency dental appointment locally. The nominated emergency dental appointment was excellent. Superb advice and service. Thank you Denolan

Fast and efficient

The two people who helped me on the phone were kind and reassuring. They explained everything carefully and quickly organised my emergency appointment in an area I don’t know which was so good. The dentist who I saw was superb and took great care of my broken tooth. I’m so grateful to everyone for their help.
