General dentistry
We collect under the term dentistry the "standard" things people think of when they think of the dentist. For example, filling cavities, solving nerve problems and pulling teeth or (wisdom) molars. All with the goal of making sure you have healthy teeth again.
Recommendation: twice a year check-up
Nothing is mandatory in dentistry. You decide what happens to your teeth. But we do recommend that you come in twice a year for a checkup of your teeth. Then we can often get there in time to intervene before you develop problems.
Do you already have complaints? Let us know and we'll see how we can best help you get rid of them.
Modern composite fillings
Those gray amalgam fillings of yesteryear? We haven't made those for years. If you have a cavity now, we use composite to make a filling that matches the shape and color of the rest of your teeth. So that no one sees that your teeth have been repaired.
We have created a separate page for crowns and bridges: More about crowns and bridges.
Afraid of the dentist? We think with you
Many people are afraid of the dentist. This is also because pain in the teeth is experienced differently than pain in any other part of the body. At hello.smile we always listen to how you experience the situation. For example, are you afraid of the needle or the pain of the treatment? Then we will take the time to help you so that it feels right for you to be treated.
What about health insurance?
- Basic insurance covers the cost of surgical dental care, x-ray examinations and removable dentures.
- For people over 18, periodic check-ups are not included in the basic package.
- Basic insurance covers special dental care (including orthodontics and implants) if there is a serious (developmental) disorder or abnormality of the mouth.
- Supplemental dental insurance is recommended if you expect to incur substantial dental expenses. Generally speaking, you will be cheaper.
- For all dental expenses eligible for reimbursement under your supplementary dental insurance, there is no deductible. However, a co-payment often applies, so you do have to pay a portion yourself.
However you are insured, we always think with you based on your personal situation.
