Business insurance

Insurance for Dentists

Dental practices carry serious exposure: professional indemnity for clinical care, public liability for patients on the premises, plus cover for expensive equipment, contents and business interruption if a chair or steriliser goes down. With staff on the books, workers' compensation is required, and practitioners must maintain their own registration and indemnity arrangements.

Premiums for a practice commonly sit around $2,000 a year, and many policies renew near 30 June, making the new financial year a sensible time to review. Cockatoo helps you match to a broker who understands dental and healthcare risk.

Common questions

Dentists — insurance questions

What insurance does a dental practice need?

Professional indemnity for clinical work, public liability for patients, and cover for equipment, contents and business interruption are core, plus workers' compensation for staff. Practitioners also hold their own indemnity. Cockatoo helps you find a broker who understands healthcare.

When should I review the practice's cover?

Many policies renew around 30 June, so the new financial year is a good moment to confirm cover matches your equipment, staff and patient volumes. Premiums often sit near $2,000. Cockatoo helps you compare at renewal.
