This Guarantee applies to your remedial dental work and can be validated only if this document is present. Annual check-ups are mandatory every 12 months at our clinics (either in Budapest or London) to maintain your guarantee.

Extent of guarantee:

The guarantee applies to dental restoration under normal conditions of use:
break, loosen, crack, discolour
OR fillings that fall out.

In this case, we will restore, repair or change any restorations free of charge. In the case of implants, the guarantee is only valid if our dental clinic completes the work fully (places the crowns and/or bridges as well).

The guarantee will be reduced or invalidated if:

oral hygiene is neglected
dentist's instructions are not followedr
emovable restorations, such as partial dentures or full dentures are neither used nor maintained properly
you do not attend the practice for check-ups at least once every 12 months
the gum tissue or tooth bone is naturally reducing
substantial amount of weight loss or weight gain within a short period of time
a general illness is present which has adverse effects on the chewing organ (e.g. diabetes, epilepsy, osteoporosis, after-condition excessive X-rays or chemotherapy)
damage caused by accidents, sports or any third party
smoking or drug abuse occurs
payment obligations are not fulfilled

The guarantee does not apply for the following:

allergies, tooth illnesses and their related consequences after treatment which were not noticeable before treatment started
damage caused by extreme stress (grinding at night, grip of the teeth)
damage due to dental restoration carried out by any other person (e.g.: dentist, dental technician) who is not a team member of our practice
temporary dentures, crowns or bridges
bone grafting procedures (bone block, bone augmentation, sinus lift, bone from hip)
tooth-whitening procedureinappropriate selection of the colour and shape of the dental work by the patient (during the preparation period, patients are given the opportunity to choose what they want but we cannot take responsibility for the decision of the patient)
root canal treatment (root canal treatment has high risk factors for which a guarantee cannot be given. The anatomic differences and the large number of variations for each individual mean that we cannot assure everything even with the most careful of dental treatment.

Please note, that if your tooth or root canal unexpectedly (not seen during the diagnosis, X-ray or consultation) injures or opens during the preparation of fixed prosthetic works (crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays) British Hungarian Medical Service does not take any responsibility for the need of root canal treatment in these cases. We will do everything to ensure the final, corrective treatment is carried out, but this shall be administered at the patient's expense (complex root canal treatment, root extraction, plan for the new prosthetic works and the preparation)

The guarantee does not include travel expenses and accommodation costs and is only valid for remedial dental work. It remains strictly the responsibility of the patient.
