Is a check-up paid for, do you receive reimbursement for the dental hygienist, and what about crowns or implants?<br \/>The <strong>coverage of dental costs<\/strong> depends on your age, the treatment, and your health insurance. At <strong>We Smile Tandartsen in Leiden<\/strong>, we believe it is important that you know what costs to expect in advance.<br \/>In this article, we explain which dental treatments are typically covered in 2026 and what you should look out for.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"h-welke-tandartskosten-worden-vergoed-vanuit-de-basisverzekering\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which dental costs are covered by basic insurance?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Basic insurance distinguishes between children and adults.<\/p>\n\n<h5 id=\"h-tandartsvergoeding-voor-kinderen-tot-18-jaar\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental coverage for children up to 18 years old<\/h5>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For children up to 18 years old, most regular dental treatments are covered by basic insurance.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This includes, among others:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Periodic check-ups<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fillings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>X-rays when necessary<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dental cleaning and preventive oral care<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Root canal treatments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tooth extractions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No mandatory deductible applies to this regular oral care.<br \/><strong>Please note:<\/strong> orthodontics, such as braces, are usually not covered by basic insurance.<br \/>Read also why a <a href=\"https:\/\/leiden-tandarts.nl\/periodieke-controle\/\">periodic dental check-up<\/a> is important for healthy teeth.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-tandartsvergoeding-voor-volwassenen-vanaf-18-jaar-vanaf-18-jaar-vallen-gewone-tandartsbehandelingen-meestal-buiten-de-basisverzekering-dit-geldt-bijvoorbeeld-voor-controles-vullingen-kronen-en-reguliere-gebitsreinigingen-er-zijn-uitzonderingen-zo-kan-de-basisverzekering-onder-voorwaarden-dekking-bieden-voor\"><strong>Dental coverage for adults from 18 years old<\/strong><br \/><br \/>From the age of 18, standard dental treatments usually fall outside of basic insurance.<br \/>This applies, for example, to check-ups, fillings, crowns, and regular dental cleanings.<br \/>There are exceptions. For instance, basic insurance may provide coverage under certain conditions for: <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Oral surgery treatments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Certain full dentures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Special dentistry for specific medical indications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For care covered by basic insurance, the mandatory deductible may apply. In addition, a statutory personal contribution applies to some treatments. <\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"h-wat-vergoedt-een-aanvullende-tandartsverzekering\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does supplementary dental insurance cover?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Supplementary dental insurance can cover part of your dental costs.<br \/>Which treatments are covered varies by insurer and package.<br \/>Many supplementary insurance policies offer coverage for:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dental check-ups<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fillings and X-rays<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Treatments by the dental hygienist<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Root canal treatments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Crowns and bridges<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sometimes implants<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Insurers often work with a maximum amount per calendar year. A reimbursement percentage may also apply, for example, 75% or 100% up to a certain maximum.<br \/>An insurance policy that covers 100% does not automatically mean that all dental costs are paid without limit.<br \/>Want to know more about professional cleaning?
