Is it free to visit the dentist in Germany?

It depends on the type of treatment you need. Many treatments are covered by your health insurance, such as annual scaling, standard fillings and tooth extraction. Present your DAK health insurance card at the practice reception and we will cover the costs of your treatment.
With some other treatments or services you will have to cover part of the costs yourself, for example for dentures. If you need dentures, your dental practice will draw up an electronic treatment and cost plan (eHKP), which we will use to decide how much the subsidy for the dentures will be. As soon as the plan has been approved, treatment can begin.
Would you like to make a private additional agreement with your dentist? Feel free to show us the quote before you sign it.
