“I’ve been with Dental Trust since completing my residency, and I can wholeheartedly attest to their exceptional professionalism and commitment. Their open communication always makes me feel valued and understood, with my best interests consistently prioritized. Dental Trust has stood by me, providing unparalleled support, and ensuring I’m well taken care of. I’m grateful to be part of the Dental Trust family and highly recommend them to any dental professional seeking trustworthy coverage.”
Scott Ohmart, DDS
“I had insurance coverage with the AAO for over 20 years and switched to the Trust seven years ago. The AAO was fine, but I never had anyone to reach out to, when I had questions or concerns about patients. Having a personal connection with my local peers, like Dr. Delapp and Dr Geck at the Trust, has made it easy to discuss those difficult circumstances which we all have. Honestly, I would rather have my insurance contact being in Denver, vs calling a 1-800 number, probably one of the best moves I’ve made to protect my practice.”
Heather R. Richardson, DMD MSD
“I have been practicing dentistry in the state of Colorado since 2007. It is an absolute privilege to work with The Trust. I am proud to be part of a member owned, non-profit organization where I am represented and supported by my peers. The Trust has given me advice in many aspects of private practice. This organization uses dentists to examine claims, and the best legal teams to guide you. They are professional and understand what the stresses and challenges are of being a dental professional. There are times in our careers where we are working long days or late night and we need advice. The Trust will be there for you 100%. I support The Trust as much as they support me. I would not want to practice without them.”
Nathan Becker, DDS
“Thanks again for having my back! Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever end up having to deal with any adverse action from a patient or another provider. When the worst came to fruition, the Trust was there to guide me through the process, reassure me amidst the uncertainty, and ultimately deliver a great outcome. We all work hard for our patients and our livelihoods. The Trust worked hard to protect my efforts and reputation as a provider, and I cannot thank them enough for it.”
Dr. Lindsey Cosper
“It’s so nice to have a support system such as the Trust to help navigate through a situation. I greatly appreciate what you do to support dentists like myself throughout the entire state. Thank you, Thank you!”

“Last year was the most difficult and stressful year I have had since I have been in the practice of dentistry. It is actually very hard for me to put down in words what the whole litigation experience is like. Let’s just say, I never want to go through another. But briefly, I am so thankful to have had Dr. Candace DeLapp, Dr. Randy Kluender and Tom (Trust attorney) with me through the process. I don’t think I would still be practicing if it wasn’t for the DPLT.”
Dr. Jenna Nicholson
“I have been working with the Trust for a total of 5 years. They have made it very easy to reach out for advice and are always protecting the dentist. They are a valuable resource and are consistently professional. The rates are very reasonable but more importantly, the resources and support you are getting by becoming a Member of the Trust is invaluable.”

“Here’s my experience with The Dentists Professional Liability Trust as one of its defense attorneys: it exclusively uses seasoned dentists as claim professionals, so they know the dentistry, provide excellent assistance to legal counsel, and understand the emotional toll of having a patient sue, even though you’ve done your best. The Trust provides sound, honest advice to avoid or resolve conflicts; it arranges immediate legal help for insureds if complaints are made to the Colorado Dental Board; and if litigation is unavoidable, it lends thoughtful, steady support. It is a superior insurer.”
Dr. Lindsay Compton
“I brag to my friends in other states about the tremendous advantage Colorado dentists have with the Trust. I have more confidence knowing that a group of dentists are supporting me and looking out for my best interests and my practice. I’m assured knowing that I can call them anytime, with any question, and I’m able to talk to an actual practicing dentist. I feel like the Trust cares for me and my practice.”
Nicholas D. Shumaker, DDS
“The Trust is one of our state’s most unique and beneficial resources for Colorado dentists and dental specialists. It offers exceptional value and excellent representation coupled with a very professional and knowledgeable staff who are always willing to offer advice and resources to ensure optimal risk management for our practices.”
Louis R. Gerken, DDS
“I have participated in The Trust since their establishment in 1987, and value their competent, professional staff, their reasonable rates, and their sound business practices. They have built a wonderful reputation for serving and protecting Colorado dentists! Their coverage cannot be beat!”
Gerald B. Savory, DDS
“I would be happy to share with my colleagues that my participation in the Trust over the past 25 years has been a consistent source of security, comfort, predictability and stability for my dental practice. I rest a little easier knowing that the folks at the Trust have engineered a liability safety net that provides excellent protection for my practice and family assets. I cannot imagine practicing without this critical coverage.”
Mayya Acherkan, DDS
I have been with the Trust since 2006 and I always get to talk to a person when I call and get my questions answered.

The Trust has supported my practice since graduation 1987. Knowing the support is there is comforting even without needing Dr. DeLapp and her team.

The Trust has been an amazing benefit for Colorado dentists for many years. They have provided excellent coverage and service through the years and have kept our premium costs low. It’s always comforting to be able to pick up the phone and talk to your insurer if you have a problem.

I love the Trust and the support that they have given me and my practice. Recently, I had to dismiss a difficult patient, and Dr DeLapp advised me on the process. We dismissed her and actually even received an apology note from the patient.

Excellent Customer Service with any and all questions that I have about patients. It’s nice to have someone who knows who you are when you call in.

The Trust has been the answer to the question; Who to trust? with covering my backside.
Mark Levine, DMD
I have been with the Trust since its inception. The Trust offers individual care. It has local people who care, communicate, and assist with questions and concerns. No large company can provide the attention to the dentists as our Trust.
Kim Marshall, DDS
Dr. DeLapp is wonderful! She always answers her phone and has wonderful guidance and advice!
Chuck Marx, DDS
(I like) The price of insurance and advice you give on all kinds of issues.

I’ve been with the Trust since it started, and it has been great. Lots of support and help. In 1987 the Trust was the only way I could afford to start my practice.
Jeane Schoemaker, DDS
I love the Trust! As a former Trust Board member and President, I realize how lucky we, in Colorado, are to have the Trust for reliability and honesty.
