Tell me about the key benefits

Affordable care: Denplan Essentials is designed to help you budget for your routine dental care. The cost of your routine care is spread across manageable monthly payments, so you won’t have to worry about large, unexpected bills.

Discount on routine dental treatment: With our maintenance care packages, you can benefit from up to 20% discount on the cost of routine treatments. (See Denplan terms and conditions for further details.)

Prevention focused: Preventive care is the backbone of both Lighthouse Dental Practice and Denplan Essentials. By covering regular checkups and hygiene treatments, we focus on catching problems early to reduce the risk of developing more costly and complex treatments. Routine visits can help you avoid the need for costly dental procedures in the future.

Stress-free visits: Regular checkups and cleaning appointments can make dental visits more routine and less stressful. Having a set schedule of care helps ease the anxiety often associated with dentist appointments and reduces the need for emergency visits.
