Our vision on care

We believe it is important that care is accessible to everyone. Even if you are anxious, need extra guidance, or experience barriers, we take the time and ensure a calm and respectful approach. In addition, we feel socially involved and are committed to people for whom dental care is not a matter of course.

With an eye for people, health and the future, we offer care that goes beyond just treatment.

A building with a long history of care

Our practice is located in a special national monument on the Begijnenstraat in Nijmegen. For centuries, this building was the Burgerweeshuis (Civilian Orphanage), where children without parents were cared for. The history of the orphanage has both Catholic and Protestant roots and symbolizes the long tradition of care and involvement in the city.

To this day, this history lives on. The building is still connected to the Stichting Beide Weeshuizen (Both Orphanages Foundation), which is committed to the well-being and development of vulnerable children and young people in Nijmegen. The foundation is governed by regents, who meet monthly in the building in their own historic meeting room. In addition, large signs hang in the building with the names of all the regents throughout the centuries, as a tangible reminder of this long tradition of responsibility and care.

Since the 1980s, the building has been given a new purpose as a health center, in which various healthcare providers work together. Tandartsen Weeshuis is also part of this. In this way, the building, which for centuries has been dedicated to caring for others, is given a contemporary interpretation – a beautiful connection between past and present.
