Costs and insurance

In Germany, dental fees follow official fee schedules. For anything beyond a routine examination you receive a written plan that lists each item and your personal share, so you always know what to expect before treatment starts.

If you have supplementary dental insurance, you can submit the plan to your insurer before treatment. We are happy to wait for their answer.

Travelling to Herne for treatment

Patients who live further away often combine appointments so that fewer trips are needed. Because surgery, prosthetics and the dental laboratory are in the same building, several steps can frequently be scheduled into one stay. Tell us your travel dates and we will plan around them.
