What Our Patients Say

"I have been anxious about dental visits my whole life. Dr Dumas made the whole process calm, explained everything clearly, and I genuinely did not feel the injection. The difference in my smile is remarkable."

Marelize van der BergParow, Cape Town

"The billing process is completely stress-free. They claim directly from my medical aid and I have never had a surprise bill. For a family with three children, that kind of predictability matters enormously."

Johan FerreiraOude Westhof, Bellville

"My veneers were done in two appointments. The colour matching is perfect and nobody can tell they are not my natural teeth. The metal-free approach was very important to me and Dr Dumas fully understood that."

The CCD Plan

The Cosmodent Conservative Dentistry Plan removes financial uncertainty from your oral health decisions. Here is exactly how it works.

Conservative, Transparent, Patient-Centred

The CCD Plan reflects the philosophy of the practice: preventive care and early intervention are always preferable to complex remedial treatment. Keeping dentistry conservative in scope means better outcomes for patients, and the fee structure is designed to make that approach accessible to everyone.

All fees are based on Medical Aid Tariff rates. There are no private rate mark-ups applied on top of scheme rates, and no co-payments are levied on medical aid patients. What your scheme covers is what you pay.

How Fees Work at Cosmodent

Medical Aid Patients

The practice is contracted to all South African medical schemes. Only the Medical Aid Tariff rate applies. Claims are submitted electronically on your behalf at the time of treatment. You leave the practice with no balance to settle, and no account is raised against you beyond what your scheme covers.

Medical Aid with Depleted Savings

If your medical savings account is depleted before year end, payment terms can be arranged to spread the outstanding balance. Necessary treatment is never deferred simply because a savings account has run out partway through the year.

Private Patients

For patients without medical aid, structured payment terms are available over 3, 6, 12, or 24 months. These are arranged directly with the practice administration team and are subject to standard terms and conditions. Credit and debit card facilities are available in-practice.

In-Practice Payment Facilities

The practice accepts all major credit and debit cards. Electronic fund transfers are also accommodated. Account payment terms for private patients are available on application. Full terms and conditions are provided at the time of arrangement.

Ready to discuss your treatment plan?

Bring your medical aid card to your first evaluation. Dr Dumas will walk you through a personalised treatment plan and all associated costs before anything is agreed.
