The Allen Thomas Group

You focus on patients. Who's protecting the practice behind them? A dental office combines clinical liability, expensive equipment, protected patient data, and a busy team — a coverage profile a standard business policy was never built for.

Dental practices need coverage shaped around their specific risks: malpractice exposure, HIPAA-protected records, high-value clinical equipment, and the revenue impact of any closure.

The coverages dental offices need:
✅ Dental Malpractice / Professional Liability — for patient injury and treatment-error claims
✅ General Liability — patient slip-and-falls and property damage in the office
✅ Cyber Liability / HIPAA Coverage — for the patient records you're legally responsible for
✅ Equipment Breakdown — chairs, sterilizers, imaging, and CAD/CAM units
✅ Commercial Property — equipment, build-out, and leasehold improvements
✅ Business Interruption — lost revenue when you can't see patients after a covered loss
✅ Workers' Compensation — needlesticks, repetitive motion, and staff injury
✅ Employment Practices Liability (EPLI) — staff claims in a small, close-quarters office
✅ Tail Coverage — claims-made protection when retiring, selling, or switching carriers

What drives your premium:
📊 Procedures performed and specialty type
📊 Number of providers and staff
📊 Equipment values and build-out cost
📊 Patient data volume and systems used
📊 Claims history
How to strengthen your coverage and rate:
💰 Maintain documented clinical protocols and quality assurance
💰 Implement HIPAA training and data security — it improves your cyber terms
💰 Keep an accurate equipment schedule for property and breakdown coverage
💰 Work with a healthcare-experienced agent — malpractice and tail coverage are specialty lines

You've built something worth protecting — and the more you've built, the more a single lawsuit can put at risk. Your home and auto policies have liability limits, and a serious claim can blow right through them. A personal umbrella is the layer that sits above them and protects what you've worked for.
What it is:
A personal umbrella adds liability protection — typically $1M to $5M or more — on top of the liability limits in your home and auto policies. When an underlying limit is exhausted, the umbrella takes over.

What it protects:
✅ Liability above your home and auto limits
✅ Legal defense costs for covered claims
✅ Injury to a guest on your property
✅ Auto accidents where damages exceed your auto limit
✅ Certain personal injury claims like libel or slander
✅ Incidents involving household staff, pools, or recreational vehicles
What drives your premium:
📊 The umbrella limit you select
📊 Number of homes, vehicles, and drivers
📊 Pools, household staff, and recreational vehicles
📊 Your underlying home and auto liability limits
How to strengthen your coverage:
💰 Confirm your underlying limits meet the umbrella's required attachment point — a gap there is yours to cover
💰 Size the limit to your net worth and future earnings, not a default $1M
💰 Coordinate home, auto, and umbrella under one independent agent
💰 Disclose all exposures — staff, pools, boats — so a claim isn't denied
Why it matters:
Nuclear verdicts and social inflation have made affluent households deep-pocket targets, and a serious auto accident or guest injury can reach personal savings, real estate, and future earnings. For roughly $150–$400 a year for the first $1M, the umbrella is one of the most cost-effective protections you can carry.
As an independent agency, we coordinate your home, auto, and umbrella so the underlying limits align and the umbrella is sized to your actual exposure.
