Owning and transporting dental equipment? You’ll need cover that moves with you!

As a dental hygienist or dental therapist, you may own and transport equipment to and from the dental practice(s) you work at. As such, you want to be sure that if your equipment is stolen or damaged you have the financial resources to replace the equipment. If you sell products, you might transport these along with your equipment on a regular basis. In this case, you will need insurance for transporting expensive equipment and products. We provide a standalone insurance policy for equipment, including whilst in-transit, which offers financial protection for apparatus that is crucial to your professional life.
If you are a self-employed dental hygienist or therapist, you will be aware that you are responsible for bearing the cost of anything that might go wrong. When you have the right insurance in place you can focus on your job without the worry of how to meet costs should a non-clinical accident take place and a compensation claim be brought against you. Similarly, if your equipment is stolen or damaged you probably have a time period where you might be unable to practice as a hygienist or therapist, while you source replacement equipment. The Equipment-in-Transit Insurance we offer can cover the cost of replacing or repairing equipment, and even provide cover for loss of earnings in the form of Business Interruption Insurance.
We provide policies that can be tailored to protect your individual circumstances to provide the protection you need, and we’ll facilitate the whole process of arranging your insurance, from start to finish.
The following insurances can be included in your Self-Employed Insurance policies to enhance the standard protection, dependent on your specific needs:
We have experienced claims handlers who are on-hand to help, from assisting you in sourcing correct documents to support your claim to working on your behalf to resolve a claim swiftly.
