As you approach your first year in practice, you’re probably very aware of the increased responsibilities you’ll soon face. It’s an exciting period, and it’s time to make sure you’re seamlessly protected as you start a more practical role.

To enjoy all the benefits of membership for another year, renew your membership today.

Being a mutual means your needs are at the heart of everything we do. We are different to shareholder-owned companies whose primary purpose is to make money for investors. We take mutuality very seriously because it’s our commitment to you, not just today, but for your entire career and beyond.

You can pay in full or split over monthly Direct Debit payments at no extra cost.

Why indemnity is so important

All dentists practising dentistry in Ireland must have indemnity cover appropriate to the nature of their employment/practice arrangement and their area of practice.

Dental Protection has been supporting dentists in Ireland for over 100 years and we work tirelessly to help you through the next stage of your career, and beyond.

The benefits of Dental Protection membership

  • Membership provides you with the right to request assistance for cases arising in a range of different situations. If your clinical practice is called into question by your employer, the Dental Council or others, you have the right to request our assistance.
  • Your membership goes beyond just clinical negligence claims. You can also ask for help for disciplinary procedures, regulatory issues, Gardaí investigations and inquests.
  • Add to your growing expertise with our risk management courses. Tackling common causes of complaints, you can choose from accessible online learning or in-person workshops presented by experienced dentists.
