French social security: rates and reimbursements
First Consultation
During the initial consultation, we will perform a clinical examination, a panoramic radiograph, and a 3D scan. Study impressions will also be necessary on occasion. Then we can give you a quote, or even several if different treatment options are possible. You will be billed for a simple consultation.
Quote for remote patients
To send you a quote, we need a recent panoramic radiograph by email. A 3D scan will often be required.
We can do it for free in our office. If you prefer not to travel, we can send you a prescription. The scanner costs about €200 (not covered by social security). We will help you send the files correctly.
If there are several treatment options, we will call you to discuss them. You will receive a coded quote for your mutual insurance company.
Reimbursements
The reimbursement has two parts:
- Social Security: Dental care in Spain for those insured in France is reimbursed as if it were in France. More info at ameli.fr.
- Mutual insurance: They will reimburse you when they receive the Social Security reimbursement.
In practice
We will give you everything for the reimbursement:
- S3125C Form
- Paid invoice
- Proof of payment
- X-rays before and after
Important Note
Santéclair may tell you that they do not accept foreign quotes. That does not mean that your mutual insurance company will not reimburse you. The quote is valid outside of France.
