Good day Tandarts Forumer, sorry for my dutch, I have to write in English.

Here is my experience:
I bought my dentist insurance this year for the coverage of 950 Euro, because I have at least 3 teeth to be

trated. I have called my dentist last week asking about the cost for doing a 'Kroon", and as I was informed

that the total cost including the Technic Cost for each teeth will be 350 Euro.
But today I went to there, and I have to pay 333.74Euro only for root clean+X-ray for 1 teeth, what I got is

only TEMPARAY fulling, I have to go 2-3 times for the final vulling. and I have already paid 1/3 of my

insurance budget.
Here is the invoice:
E19 Insluiten calciumhydroxide 15,50
A10 Geleid. of infilt. anesthesie 12,92
C11 Periodiek preventief onderzoek 19,63
E19 Insluiten calciumhydroxide 15,50
A10 Geleid. of infilt. anesthesie 12,92
C11 Periodiek preventief onderzoek 19,63
X21 Orthopantomogram 61,99
E16 Wortelkanaalbeh. driekanalig elem. 175,65
In total 333.74EURO.

I don't know why for E19, A10 and C11 they charge me twice?
Is all the cost reseanable? the code is very clear, but who can check if they really has done all the operation?

or Are all the operation is necessary???

Thanks for all in advance.

Well, I miss the E01 code, ;) and several X-ray's( code X10) and they charged you twice the C11 code.
When the root-canal treatment is done in three periods the dentist is allowed to charge you twice the code E19.

Therefore the invoice seems to be ok.

Thx Robison, It was the first time I visit dentist. Actually I am not satisfied with the treatment, the doctor is not nice and she is a Dental Practice...I want to change another dentist.
But as you said'When the root-canal treatment is done in three periods the dentist is allowed to charge you twice the code E19'I am afraid that I have to keep going there until they finish the Vulling operation (now I only got the temporary vulling)?
I don't know how much they will charge me in the 2nd and 3rd time's visit. Shall I argue with them not to charge me AGAIN the code E19?

or, maybe there is no space for argue with them, I have to go to another dentist and accept this bill, but the final cost for fixing my teeth gonna be higher?
Shall I stay with this dentist or switch to another?

Your advise will be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Good night!


BTW, I still don't understand Why they charged me twice C11 and A10.

Ok, thanks Robinson, so according to you they didn't 'Overcharge' for this time, right?
I still don't understand Why they charged me twice C11 and A10.
They only did 1 Root-clean for 1 teeth, why charged me twice?

Ok, it's a Dutch forum, but you all have to agree that there are alot of people living in the Netherlands, which aren't origionaly from the Netherlands, nor speak good dutch. (not even talking about writing in dutch)

This mister or miss Jojoclub is just wandering why he got this invoice. He/she does not understand why they did a double code, for several things. So please explain this to him/her, instead of "flaming" himher, or make him/her look rediculous.

en wat wil je daarmee zeggen? Het maakt me geen bal uit of er geen nederlands gesproken wordt, maar op de forum waar de taal nederlands wordt gebruikt als hoofdtaal is dat waar je het mee moet doen. Anders moet je een forum in het engels zoeken. AANPASSEN dus, en ik heb de link naar de instant vertaal machine gegeven. Het is niet zo dat als je geen nederlands kan lezen dat je ineens imbeciel bent en de weg naar die vertaling niet kan verzinnen.
