We wanted to fix that by pulling apart the most common indemnity myths we hear in practice and replacing them with plain-English explanations you can use at renewal time.We talk through the real differences between discretionary dental indemnity and non-discretionary professional indemnity insurance for UK dentists, including why having a contract, clear policy wording, and a route to the Financial Ombudsman Service can matter when the pressure is on. We also challenge the rumour that “insurers always look for a way out”, and explain what a fair presentation of risk looks like in the real world.Another big sticking point is fear. Many dentists hesitate to call their indemnity provider for advice because they worry next year’s indemnity premium will jump. We unpack why good providers want you to call early, how early notification helps resolve issues before they become claims, and why risk management advice can be as valuable as the cover itself. From there we get practical about pricing: claims made vs claims occurrence, retroactive cover, and why “cheaper” is only meaningful once you understand what is and is not included.We also cover switching, including the anxiety some clinicians feel about leaving a mutual and whether past work stays protected. If you want to make an educated choice instead of a habitual one, this is the conversation to hear.
