Patient Plan Direct
Switching patient plan provider is easy with Patient Plan Direct. With Patient Plan Direct you can enjoy a lower cost provider, with no compromise on service.
Patient Plan Direct (PPD)
Offering your patients a plan option is easy with PPD; the cost-effective major dental plan provider with over 15 years of industry experience working with hundreds of UK dental practices and satisfied clients.
With PPD, your practice will be supported in 3 distinct capacities: Simple Switch, NHS to Private Conversion, New Plan Launch.
Simple Switch
If you currently work with another plan provider, you can switch to PPD and make significant financial savings whilst growing your plan base further. But how is it so simple?
Their Simple Switch process bulk transfers your patients’ direct debits from your existing dental plan provider to PPD in the background. That means no admin is required of your practice team, and no action is needed from your patients – it is that simple!
With case studies to evidence a seamless transition when practices switch and evidence of high patient retention rates, why not get in touch? Practices save by switching and often expand their plan base with the expert support. After completing the Simple Switch process, the outcome is a more financially successful dental practice with a more profitable plan.
The Numbers Speak for Themselves
You not only save money by switching but grow your patient plan base too!
NHS to Private Conversion
If you’re looking to make a gradual move to private dentistry, or leave NHS dentistry for good, PPD’s expert team can guide you through a successful conversion. PPD understand the uncertainty surrounding NHS to private dentistry. Rest assured, they have the expertise to make your transition seamless and successful. It is commonly acknowledged that this is a significant decision, often accompanied by emotional considerations.
This is why PPD’s 5-step process for an NHS Conversion ensures they are with you every step of the way. From an initial complimentary and no obligation viability analysis bespoke to your practice, right the way through to in-practice support to assist with your patient queries and signups during the first week of turning private.
New Plan Launch
If you are considering launching a dental plan for your patients, they can help you introduce a simple, flexible, practice-branded solution.

Would You Now Consider Changing Dental Plan Provider?
Hear from a practice that has switched and saved with Patient Plan Direct:
Slide 1 of 3 
We acquired Denplan patients… and asked our Denplan rep to summarise what it is per month that we pay. The first thing that struck me was how high the admin fees were – they were insane!
Dr Zak Kara, Co-Principal Dentist at Smile Stories, who switched from Denplan
Slide 2 of 3
Patient Plan Direct gave us the confidence. We knew from the first meeting we were going to have support and hand-holding. Because you’d been there and done it all before, you pre-empted the potential obstacles that we hadn’t thought about ourselves and explained how we’d overcome them in advance.
Deborah Litherland-Smith, Practice Manager at Bore Street Dental Practice, describing the level of support through a full NHS Conversion
Slide 3 of 3
Choosing Patient Plan Direct was a sound business decision. They offer excellent value and first-rate support. The money saved in comparison with other providers means that I can invest in my practice, grow my patient base and further grow the Holly Dental brand.
