Frequently asked questions about our dental hygienist in Amsterdam
We recommend that you always combine your six-monthly dental check-up with an appointment with a dental hygienist. So, twice a year.
The rates of different treatments are re-established every year. So they are the same with every dentist.
This depends on your insurance. Do you only have basic insurance? Then you pay for the treatment yourself. If you have additional insurance for the dentist, you will usually be reimbursed. Always check this yourself in your health insurance policy or contact your health insurer. That way you won’t be faced with any surprises.
Exception: the costs for a dental hygienist for children are covered by the basic insurance.
