Worldwide Trauma and Emergency Callout
Insurance
Emergency Callout – cover can be provided by any dentist worldwide who agrees
to treat you. You simply pay the Emergency Callout charge to the
dentist concerned and collect a receipted invoice. This will then be
processed through the practice for eimbursement from the insurers and
you will be refunded the callout fee, minus the excess, up to the
policy limits. This cover is to provide immediate pain relief only;
no additional or restorative treatment fees can be claimed. You
should return to the practice in normal hours for any further
treatment required.
Dental Trauma – cover is provided should you be unfortunate enough to
suffer a dental trauma, for example, as a result of a road traffic
accident or an accident at home or at work. The insurers will settle
the claim up to the policy limits and you will need to pay any relevant
excess.
Hospitalisation – benefit is provided should you have to stay in
hospital as a result of dental trauma.
Permanent Facial Disfigurement – benefit is provided should you be
scarred on the neck or face as a result of the accident.
