What is dental malpractice insurance?

Dental Malpractice insurance, our specialty, is a specific type of professional liability insurance meant to protect you from allegations of malpractice. Dental work is full of risks that expose professionals to these allegations, this policy aims to cover the legal expenses of lawsuits and claims that follow them.

To better understand pricing and coverage options, speak to your agent about the two types of Dental Malpractice Insurance: Claims-Made and Occurrence-Based.

Claims-Made policies will apply coverage for incidents and claims made within the policy period. If your policy is active from 2022-to 2025 and a claim is filed in 2024 for an incident in 2024, you would be covered.

Occurrence-Based policies will apply coverage for incidents that occurred during your policy period, even if the claim was filed after your policy ended. If your policy was active from 2020-2023 and a claim is filed in 2025 for an incident in 2022, you would be covered.
