Insurance reimbursement: how your insurer contributes

Your entitlement

Statutory health insurers in Germany pay a fixed, diagnosis-based subsidy (Festzuschuss) for dentures, crowns and bridges – 60% of the standard-treatment cost, rising to 70–75% with a complete dental bonus booklet. Austria and Switzerland have their own reimbursement schemes; check your policy.

The subsidy is tied to your diagnosis, not to where you are treated. It applies to treatment in Hungary as well.

Why it works across the EU

Hungary is an EU member state. Under the EU cross-border healthcare directive (2011/24/EU), you may seek treatment in any EU country and your insurer reimburses what the same treatment would have cost at home, up to your normal subsidy.

Because our prices are far below Western European levels, the same subsidy covers a much larger share of your total bill.

Step by step

1. 1

   Get a treatment-and-cost plan: after your free first examination (existing X-rays welcome), we prepare a treatment plan in the format your insurer expects.

2. 2

   Submit it to your insurer before treatment and have your subsidy approved – the same routine as for domestic treatment.

3. 3

   Have your treatment with us in Mosonmagyaróvár, 15 minutes from the Austrian border.

4. 4

   Submit our detailed, reimbursement-ready invoice together with the approved plan and receive your subsidy.

Supplementary insurance & tax

Private supplementary dental policies generally reimburse EU treatment under the same terms as domestic care – check your policy wording.

In many countries dental costs (sometimes including travel) can also be claimed as an extraordinary expense on your tax return.
