Dentist rates 2026
At We Smile Tandartsen, we believe it is important that you have clarity beforehand. In the Netherlands, maximum rates for dental treatments are established annually by the Dutch Healthcare Authority (NZa).
The final costs depend on the treatment and the procedures required. For more extensive treatments, you will receive a written estimate in advance, so you can review the costs at your convenience.
Nationally established performances, treatment codes, and maximum rates from the Dutch Healthcare Authority (NZa) apply to dental care. Dutch Healthcare Authority
How are dentist rates structured?
Every treatment consists of one or more performance codes. Examples include a periodic check-up, X-ray, filling, or root canal treatment. A maximum rate is linked to each code for 2026.
The official rates and treatment codes are established by the Dutch Healthcare Authority. Additionally, the KNMT publishes a clear rates booklet every year containing the performances, codes, and rates. KNMT

Clarity about costs in advance
When a more extensive treatment is necessary, we first discuss which treatment we advise and the associated costs.
For treatments where additional material or technique costs apply, such as certain crowns, bridges, or prosthetic provisions, these costs may be charged alongside the dental treatment codes. We include these in the estimate when they are applicable.
Do you have questions about the costs in advance? Please feel free to let us know. We believe it is important that you know where you stand before we begin a treatment.
Reimbursement by your health insurance
For children up to 18 years old, a large part of regular dental care is covered by the basic insurance. For adults, regular dental care usually depends on any supplementary dental insurance.
The amount of reimbursement varies by insurer and policy. Therefore, we advise you to check your policy terms or contact your health insurer directly if you are in doubt.
