How to receive dental treatment

Your dentist will examine and decide individually which treatment is appropriate and necessary for your teeth. Dental treatments give you the certainty that the diseased tooth substance will be removed and the cause of the pain eliminated. During your dental treatment, you decide together which filling is right for you.

To ease the financial burden on you, we as your health insurer will cover the costs of your medically necessary dental treatment. We will cover the costs of the following dental fillings for your dental treatment:

Amalgam

Composite resin fillings in the front tooth area up to and including tooth three (you may have to pay a co-payment here; your dentist will inform you about this)

Composite resin fillings in the posterior region in the case of a proven amalgam allergy or severe renal insufficiency as well as glass ionomer cement and compomer (each suitable as a temporary filling).

Save money on dental treatment

When it comes to dentures and fillings, there are many options, questions and big differences in the costs of dental treatments.. Our partner MediKompass can help: by entering your treatment and cost plan at www.medikompass.de/sbk (currently only in German), you will receive offers from various dental practices and can thus significantly reduce your own contribution.

Supplementary dental insurance

Even more security with ARAG supplementary dental insurance: As an SBK customer, you benefit from supplementary insurance policies for the costs of dental treatment, which we offer at special conditions together with our cooperation partner ARAG. ARAG's supplementary dental insurance covers your own contribution to the costs of dental treatment, dentures and orthodontics up to the agreed amount - depending on the tariff. Your personal SBK consultant will be happy to provide you with more information.

What costs are covered by the SBK?

With the SBK, you save money on your dental treatment, because the SBK pays for it for you. The prerequisite is that your dental treatment is medically essential and that the treatment of your teeth only includes the necessary measures.

How are the costs covered by the SBK?

Your dental surgery will settle the costs of your dental treatment directly with the SBK. Simply present your SBK healthcare card when you visit the doctor.

In the event that services require prior approval – for example, periodontal treatment – your dentist will contact us directly. Generally speaking, you will receive the go-ahead from us with regard to taking on the contractual treatment costs within a few days of us receiving the necessary paperwork.

If you have received a treatment plan for dentures from your dentist, you can find information on how you can easily and conveniently submit this to us here.
