Insurance for dentists in Colorado
Learn about business insurance requirements and the most common policies for dentists in Colorado.
Which policies are required for dentists in Colorado?
If you have a commercial lease, your property manager may require you to purchase general liability insurance. Commonly purchased by dentists in Colorado, general liability insurance can protect your dental office from expenses associated with common mishaps, such as client property damage and injuries.
State law in Colorado requires every small business with employees to provide workers’ compensation insurance, which covers medical bills for work injuries.
Any employee, regardless of whether they are full-time, part-time or seasonal, is eligible for workers’ compensation insurance if they are injured on the job. Although workers’ compensation insurance is not mandatory for a sole proprietorship, it is available for those who would want it.
Note: Insureon cannot provide quotes for professional liability insurance for dentists, also called malpractice insurance.

What are the most common policies for Colorado dentists?
The most common policies for dentists in Colorado vary depending on revenue, client contracts, partnerships, and other factors.
General liability insurance
General liability insurance is the foundation of a dentist’s business protection, with coverage that extends to client injuries, client property damage, and advertising injuries. Most commercial leases require you to have this coverage.
Business owner's policy (BOP)
A small dentist’s office might qualify for a business owner’s policy. This package helps your business save money by bundling commercial property insurance with general liability insurance at an affordable rate.
Colorado workers' compensation
If you own a dental office in Colorado that has employees, you are required to carry workers’ compensation coverage. If you are a sole proprietor, the coverage is optional. However, if you slip and break an arm in your dental office, or develop carpal tunnel syndrome after years of working on patients, you can turn to your workers’ comp policy to help pay your medical bills and lost wages.
Cyber liability insurance
Cyber liability insurance can help dentists survive data breaches and cyberattacks. This policy can help pay for client notification costs, credit monitoring services, and other related expenses.
