can i get dental insurance to restore my teeth

Q. im just enquiring if i can get any help to restore my teeth , im scared of dentists as ive had bad experiences with few , a friend has told me to take out insurance out 6 a mth and il be able to restore all my teeth without paying only mthly dd is this true

A.

There are problems giving insurance advice as I am not registered with the financial services Authority !
The individual policy will provide you with the details.
There are many companies with several policies.
It appears to me that often patients take out a “claim back” policy wait untill they have passed the qualifying period then come in for treatment. Policies often have a maximum claim limit in a 12month period. Also they seldom pay all the bill but can pay 75% in some cases.

 A £1000 limit, 75% claim back example
Dentists bill (which must be paid by you) 1000
refunded by policy                       750
your final contribution                  250
