Do laser treatments have to be paid for privately or do the statutory health insurance funds reimburse the costs?


Laser treatments are scientifically approved. However, health fund patients normally have to pay the cost or surcharge for this method themselves. Private and additional insurance policies often pay for laser treatments entirely or for the most part. You benefit from a more acceptable, less painful or even painless treatment and fewer unpleasant side effects. Plus, with laser treatment you are also choosing preventative, healthy maintenance of your teeth.
