Precautions for healthy development
We accompany children step by step into a healthy life with a preventive package of statutory and nationwide standardized children’s check-ups (the “Us” from the yellow children’s check-up booklet) and additional offers from the BKK Family+ program (marked in blue here) – timely personal information by post is included with BKK W&F.

Tip: Preventive dental care
Milk teeth are the placeholders for later permanent teeth and should be retained until the teeth change. A total of six early dental check-ups up to the sixth birthday are intended to prevent dental, oral and jaw diseases. This is followed by six-monthly dental health check-ups, which are scheduled once a year from the age of 18.
The big plus for strong families: BKK Family+
Important: the services of the BKK Starke Kids program are billed directly to us by participating practices.
Subsequent reimbursement of costs is possible for the U10 (Grundschulcheck I), U11 (Grundschulcheck II) and J2 (Jugend-Check) check-ups if risk factors already exist that indicate a weakening of health or an impending illness.
