What Is Your Bonusheft Worth on the Next Crown or Bridge?
Tap the years your dentist stamped your Bonusheft, say when the treatment starts and pick the crown, bridge or denture on your plan. The ledger reads the calendar years your Krankenkasse counts, shows whether you reach the 60, 70 or 75 percent subsidy, and plots what stays on your own bill.
Fixed subsidies valid from 1 January 2026 (KZBV): crown on a back tooth 239.03, 278.87 or 298.79 euro; bridge or implant for one missing tooth 552.96, 645.12 or 691.20 euro; full upper denture 576.44, 672.52 or 720.56 euro. 70 percent needs a check-up in each of the five calendar years before treatment, 75 percent in each of the ten; 2020 never counts against you. Checked on 19 September 2026.
Every crown, bridge and denture in Germany runs on a fixed subsidy from your Krankenkasse, and the Bonusheft decides how big it is. The count uses calendar years before the treatment starts, so one empty year can drop you to the base rate. Tap your stamped years and see what that means in euros.
Why 31 December matters
The Krankenkasse counts calendar years before the year your treatment starts. For a crown next year, this year must have a stamp, or the five-year bonus is gone however often you went before.
A fixed amount, not a percentage of your bill
The subsidy is a set euro figure per diagnosis. Choose a ceramic crown or an implant and the Kasse still pays the same amount, so every extra euro is yours.
One missed year
For 75 percent your Krankenkasse may accept exactly one gap in ten years if your teeth show regular care. It is a discretionary decision, so ask before you sign the treatment plan.
What this tool leaves out
It does not include the hardship rule for low incomes, which can raise the subsidy to the full standard treatment on application, and it cannot see the exact figures on your own Heil- und Kostenplan.
