Why performance-based pricing works

By linking our revenue to UDA delivery, we align our incentives with your success — transforming workforce management from a cost center into a predictable operational expense.

Predictable Cost Per UDA

Fixed pricing eliminates budget uncertainty. You know exactly what each delivered UDA costs across your entire contract.

Aligns incentives across stakeholders

Dentello succeeds when your dentists perform. This creates natural alignment: we’re motivated to source high-quality clinicians, provide effective onboarding, and intervene early when performance issues emerge.

Enables accurate workforce budgeting

Fixed cost per UDA makes financial forecasting straightforward. Multiply your annual UDA target by £2.50, and you have your workforce cost. No hidden variables, no surprise recruitment bills.

Scales predictably across sites

Multi-site groups benefit from consistent pricing across all locations. Add sites without renegotiating terms, and consolidate billing for simplified financial management.

Pricing questions answered

How is UDA delivery calculated and reported?

We reconcile UDA delivery monthly based on your practice management system data. Our platform integrates with your existing reporting workflows, and billing is always calculated in arrears based on actual patient UDAs delivered.

Are there any hidden costs or additional fees?

No. The £2.50 per UDA rate (England) is all-inclusive. It covers recruitment, UKVI sponsorship, Academy onboarding, performance management, platform access, replacement guarantees, and all ongoing support. There are no setup fees, retainers, or surprise charges.

What happens if a dentist underperforms?

Your cost automatically adjusts downward since you only pay per UDA delivered. Additionally, our performance management team intervenes with coaching and support. If performance doesn’t improve, we activate the replacement guarantee at no cost to you.

How does pricing work for part-time or multi-site dentists?

The £2.50 per UDA model applies regardless of working pattern. Whether your dentist works 2 days or 5 days per week, or splits time across multiple sites, you pay only for UDAs delivered at each location.

Is there a minimum contract term or commitment?

Dentello is designed for long-term workforce partnerships. Typical arrangements are structured as 12-month initial terms with ongoing renewal. However, specific contract terms are flexible and discussed during your initial consultation.
