<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I'm a bit late to the discussion, but dentists in Austria are<br>
inexpensive compared to those in countries without "dental included"<br>
public healthcare. An x-ray will cost you less than 40EUR, a half hour<br>
work will probably be around 70-100EUR, depending if you need any<br>
material beyond a pain injection. A friend of mine had a bad tooth and<br>
paid privately all in all 110EUR at Dentalklinik Margarethen.<br>
<br>
If you need just a bit of drilling + filling, you should get away with<br>
<150EUR total, I'd wager it's even <100EUR. If it's prep for a root<br>
canal, it might be on the higher side, but still not what you'd pay in<br>
other countries. A white plastic filling costs between 20-40EUR<br>
(depending on size), a lidocaine injection is around 15-20EUR (except<br>
for root canal prep, where it should be included in the procedure).<br>
<br>
You can also tell them about your situation with your european health<br>
insurance card, and that you'll need a few days to have it sent to<br>
you, and the dentists secretary will then lay away your money as<br>
"collateral" which you'll get back as soon as you bring your EHIC.<br>
<br>
Mind you: with EHIC you'll always pay the country's local fees for a<br>
procedure (in case of austrian dentistry, next to nothing), the real<br>
cost of which will be billed to your origin insurance - if the<br>
procedures are not covered by your origin's insurance, you may get a<br>
bill from them ...<br>
<br>
TLDR; phone in, ask what they'll accept as collateral, bring that,<br>
then tell them that you'll bring by your EHIC, then do it, get your<br>
money back.<br>
<br>
Oh, and I can recommend Dentalklinik Margarethen. Ask for Dr. Marinova<br>
if you can, she really knows what she's doing.<br>
<br>
cheers,<br>
