FAQ: New patients

During your initial appointment, we take the time to get to know you and your dental health. The first visit typically includes:

• a comprehensive medical and dental history (health background, concerns, goals)

• a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and oral tissues

• discussion of findings and potential treatment options

• X-rays if medically indicated or requested

• planning the next steps in your treatment

The goal of your first visit is to provide a safe, transparent, and individualised diagnosis.

How long the first appointment takes depends on the clinical findings, your questions and whether any diagnostics (e.g. X-rays) are needed.

Yes. For privately insured patients, we bill the first appointment directly to you, because reimbursement depends on your specific insurance plan. Depending on your policy, your insurer may reimburse the visit fully, partially or not at all – so you pay for it first yourself.

The cost depends on whether X-rays are required.

• Without X-rays: approx. €40–60

• With X-rays: approx. €60–100 (depending on the type and number of images)

You will always receive a clear estimate in advance to ensure full cost transparency.

X-rays are not always required, but they are often recommended to:

• detect hidden cavities

• rule out root or bone inflammation

• evaluate older fillings or dental restorations

• plan treatment safely and accurately

If you already have recent X-rays (not older than 12 months), you are welcome to bring them or send them to us in advance – this may avoid additional costs.

• your current list of medications

• any existing X-rays

• allergy card (if applicable)

• treatment plans from other dentists (if you want a second opinion)

• insurance card or private insurance details

If you are experiencing pain or have an acute dental problem, we will try to offer you an appointment as quickly as possible.
In this case, the first visit is carried out as an emergency or pain appointment – the focus is on diagnosis, advice, and immediate relief.
