Additional dental insurance
Health care in the field of dentistry is changing: more and more statutory health insurance doctors are switching to private medicine. The reason is the limited services and remuneration from statutory health insurance companies, which make it difficult for many dentists to maintain high-quality medical standards.
Private doctors, on the other hand, can offer modern and individually tailored care. Only in private medicine are innovative techniques, high-quality materials and first-class preparations for tooth preservation and dentures guaranteed. Statutory health insurance (GKV) often only covers basic services that do not meet the latest dental standards. Anyone who values long-lasting, aesthetic and first-class quality solutions can hardly avoid private supplementary dental insurance.
Why is additional dental insurance so important?
-
High-quality materials and techniques: Modern preparations such as all-ceramic or implants, which ensure natural aesthetics and long durability, are generally not covered by statutory health insurance.
-
Professional dental prophylaxis: Regular professional dental cleanings and preventive examinations can prevent dental problems in the long term – but are often only fully reimbursable with private support.
-
Individual treatment options: Private doctors can take more time and respond to the specific needs of each patient.

Children and supplementary dental insurance - an important start to the future
Private supplementary dental insurance is particularly important for children. Many services that are crucial for healthy teeth in the long term are not covered by statutory health insurance. These include, for example
Orthodontic treatment for mild to moderate misaligned teeth.
High-quality fillings that are not only functional but also aesthetic.
Regular prophylactic measures to prevent tooth decay and other dental diseases.
It is important to start taking out supplementary dental insurance at an early age. Premiums are particularly low at a young age and children benefit from comprehensive cover for the rest of their lives. Investing early lays the foundation for healthy and beautiful teeth well into adulthood - without high additional costs.
