Thank you everyone for your advice/replies. I'm finishing up school at Boston University and I'll be practicing back in NH beginning this summer. I will definitely look into Guardian, NW mutual and AIG. Luckily I've made it this far without any serious injuries so hopefully that can work in my favor when applying. Best wishes

I've been in the industry for 15+ years and I also do seminars at our local medical school. Northwestern Mutual has the best disability contract especially with their medical definition. I also use Guardian and they are great. Guardian is typically cheaper than Northwestern Mutual, but I don't advise basing your decision on financial instruments solely on price. Feel free to reach out and I can send you some literature.

Dr. Gerrit Wolsink was a dentist and Grand Prix MX racer so you are in good company. Just don’t do fillings while riding a hover board.

What dental school are you at? Don’t stop riding haha. I was told all through dental school to stop, now I’m a dentist in the army with pretty much the same risks if I ever do get injured. Keep us updated on who you choose. I’ll be getting out of the army soon and in the same boat.

I just got an additional 500k insurance policy last Spring. When I was asked about that question with skydiving, flying, or racing motorcycles I questioned the race part and they asked if I race professionally, which I obviously do not LOL I can't say that is the case for every insurance company, but that was AIG's criteria in determining whether I race motorcycles or not.

I am a dentist and ride. One of the questions is something like, "do you RACE motorcycles, skydive or fly planes". I ride but I dont race so I answered no. I have guardian and 2 years after I graduated I crashed hard and broke both my legs and neck. I was able to use my benefits. I hate insurance but I have to give credit to guardian for making it a pretty easy process. Feel free to reach out if you want to chat more dreccker@gmail.com

Hello, excuse my ignorance if this topic already has a thread. I'm new to this site and still figuring it out. I'm a 4th year dental student about to graduate with a boatload of debt. I grew up riding and racing and have hopes of continuing riding. I am curious what companies out there offer good own occupation insurance plans...
