Financing
SANA Clinic has partnered with the Territorial Health Insurance Funds to provide dental prosthetics.
The cost of dentures is covered by the Compulsory Health Insurance Fund (CHIF) budget,
based on the actual cost once the dentures are fully completed.
How to obtain dentures at SANA Dental Clinic through THIF funding?
1. Visit your GP or preferred dentist to assess your dental condition and register it in the THIF electronic system. Previously, this was a longer process, but now you will receive a “Notification” immediately, confirming your THIF funding for the prosthesis.
2. Visit our clinic for a consultation. When booking your consultation, inform our specialists that you have been granted THIF funding for your prosthesis. If you have a confirmation note, please show it to the receptionist upon arrival.
3. At your first consultation, we will create a personalised treatment plan. If you agree with the plan, our specialists will update the THIF electronic system to confirm your choice of SANA Dental Clinic.
4. Your follow-up visits will include the prosthetic services outlined in your treatment plan.
5. Once your prosthetic treatment is complete, this will be recorded in the THIF system. If needed, you may reapply for denture funding after at least three years, following the current guidelines.
