Dutch for Dentists

Are you or will you be working as a dentist in the Netherlands and looking to improve your Dutch communication skills?

Dutchily offers practical Dutch language training for dentists, focused on patient communication, professional interaction and dental terminology.

Our lessons are tailored to your daily practice and working environment.

Practical Dutch for dental practice

Working as a dentist in the Netherlands requires more than technical knowledge. Clear communication with patients, colleagues and dental assistants is essential in daily practice.

Our courses focus on:

  • patient communication
  • dental vocabulary
  • explaining treatments and procedures
  • workplace communication
  • building confidence in speaking Dutch

Recognisable situations from dental practice

The lessons are built around situations you encounter in daily dental practice, such as:

  • welcoming and informing patients
  • explaining treatments and procedures
  • discussing oral health and aftercare
  • working together with colleagues and assistants
  • communicating professionally and clearly

This helps you learn Dutch that is directly applicable in the dental workplace.

Our approach

At Dutchily, we combine language, culture and context. This means:

  • focus on speaking and understanding
  • attention to Dutch workplace communication
  • profession-specific language tailored to dentistry
  • room for personal learning goals
  • lessons in a safe and supportive learning environment

Flexible and personalised training

Every dentist has a different background, working environment and learning need.

That is why we offer flexible learning programmes, ranging from fixed training packages to customised support.

Depending on your situation, we look at:

  • your language level and work context
  • your communication goals
  • the preferred intensity and duration of the training

Some programmes include additional support, such as WhatsApp coaching, so you can continue practising outside the lessons.
