Dental home visits for the elderly and people in need of care

If you are unable to visit a dental practice due to personal restrictions, you can arrange a home visit.

Description

In order to improve dental care for elderly Munich residents or those in need of care, the City of Munich, in cooperation with the project organiser "Teamwerk - Dentistry for people in need of care and people with disabilities", has launched a dental home visit service. The spectrum ranges from prophylaxis to treatment for toothache, inflamed gums or loose dentures.

Prerequisites

Home visits by dentists can be offered if a visit to the practice is not possible or only possible with great effort due to personal restrictions.

In addition, at least one of the following criteria must be met

  • Classification in a care degree according to §15 SGB XI
  • Integration assistance according to §99 SGB IX

When requesting a dental visit, Teamwerk asks whether the requirements are met.

Duration & Costs

Fees

The service is billed to the health insurance company within the statutory framework. There are no extra costs for the visit.
