Notice Board - June 2010

Dental indemnity for cosmetic treatment

28 June 2010

MDDUS now offers indemnity for dentists providing non-surgical cosmetic treatment, including Botox.

This protection is offered without additional charge as part of a standard GDP subscription but subject to certain conditions.

Members must be in the ‘7 sessions or more’ membership category for GDPs and should have graduated before 2008. The member also must provide details of courses attended for the provision of this type of treatment, as well as plans for updating knowledge.

Evidence of protocols being used for patient assessment and the monitoring of treatment provided must also be supplied. Only procedures carried out in the immediate peri-oral area, nasal labial folds and elsewhere on the face are covered, with the neck explicitly excluded.

Only non-permanent injectable cosmetic procedures are included and the member must be registered with CHKS and under the IHAS Scheme, and possess the IHAS quality mark.
