What is the Practice Membership Plan?
Our Practice Membership Plan offers a simple, flexible
way to pay for your dental care. In return for a nominal
monthly payment we provide you with a comprehensive programme
of maintenance, prevention and treatment.
Why have we introduced the Practice Membership Plan?
As we hope you have already experienced, we are totally
committed to providing all of our patients with the best
quality dental care. We want to be able to spend more
time with our patients and provide prompt treatment using
the latest techniques and the best quality materials.
As part of our improved
service to you, we want to be proactive about your dental
health and for this reason regular oral hygiene visits
are included in our Practice Membership Plan as well as
your regular routine examinations. Regular oral hygiene
visits are essential to keep your breath fresh and to prevent
gum disease. You may have very healthy teeth but if your
gums and the supporting structures are not healthy you
run the risk of losing teeth and perhaps contracting infections
which in turn can cause complications such as heart disease
and diabetes.
This combined preventative
programme is proven to be the best way of ensuring long
term dental health. Over time, patients who participate
in a preventative programme of regular exams and oral hygiene
visits, such as those offered by our Practice Membership
Plan, are shown to have a much reduced need for treatment.
Why should I become a member?
Membership ensure you have access to quality dental care,
offers you a simple flexible way to pay for your dental
care and is designed to encourage you to visit us regularly
and allows us to spend more time with our patients at
each visit.
- Regular visits will mean:
- Improved gum
health
- Early diagnosis of problems
- Less complex
and therefore less expensive treatment.
