Tesco dental insurance

I picked up a brochure in their store yesterday – and on first read it looks like a great deal for the patient and for the dentist.
Am I missing something?
They refer to an online site but I cannot find it – suggest you pop into Tesco on the way home.
Their Premium Cover costs £16.95 per month for an individual and £37.95 per month for a family.
It can cover all check ups, hygiene visits (up to £200 per year) and 80% of treatment (not cosmetic)(up to £2000 per year) plus the usual nobs and whistles.
In typically British fashion, I am asking myself “what’s the dodge?”
And for no other reason than I like it – here’s a picture from yesterday afternoon of the beach at Perranuthnoe in Cornwall.
