Using Your Dental Insurance Ennis

We accept a wide range of providers, including Vhi Dental, DeCare Dental, Laya Healthcare, Irish Life Health, and many employer or group schemes. If you’re unsure about your specific policy, simply call your local practice and we’ll check for you.

Only Vhi Dental and DeCare Dental offer direct pay at our practices. This means we claim the covered amount directly from your insurer, and you only pay any balance that remains.

To use direct pay, you must give us your policy or membership number when booking. We need these details in advance to verify your cover. Without them, your visit will be processed as pay-and-claim.

We won’t be able to apply direct pay. You’ll pay the full cost on the day and then submit your own claim to your insurer.

Yes, absolutely. You’ll just pay on the day and claim back from your insurer afterwards.

We will provide:

• An itemised receipt.
• Any necessary treatment or procedure codes.
• Insurer-specific forms, if required.

If you’re unsure how to submit a claim, our team can guide you.

It varies, but many policies include benefits for routine examinations, cleaning, X-rays, fillings, root canal treatment, gum care, extractions, and some restorative treatments like crowns. To know exactly what your plan includes, check your policy or contact your insurer.

If you have dental insurance, please bring:

• Your policy or membership number (if not already provided).
• Any claim forms your insurer requires.

For direct pay, remember: your details must be submitted before your visit.

We can check direct-pay eligibility for Vhi and DeCare once we have your details. For all other insurers, we’ll guide you on what questions to ask and how to check your cover directly with your provider.

Just give us a call. We’re always happy to explain the process, answer any questions, and make sure you feel confident using your cover.
