Help? Berlin (or Prague) dentist
 
Have just arrived in Berlin and it seems my new molar crown isn't happy with the accommodations. Is anyone able to refer me to an English speaking dentist here? Alternatively, I'm in Prague next week, so can try someone there.

I'll talk to the hotel employees, though they all seem to still have their baby teeth and may not know what a dentist is. ☺️

Practically every dentist in Berlin speaks English. It is part of their education. Here are a few who explicitly say they speak English:

If you contact the US embassy or consulate they usually have a list of English speaking MDs and dentists they can give you. You need to determine if they take your insurance (unlikely) or if you need to pay up front and then file a complete report with your insurance when you return home.

A friend of mine broke a tooth in Madrid (stone in her food) and very quickly got the names of 2 or 3 dentists from the embassy.

And esp in Berlin most MDs, DDS and RPHs will speak English - very common most places in europe.

Thank you both for responding so quickly. Alas, Monday is a holiday here, but hopefully with these leads, I can get in to see someone Tuesday or Wednesday.
I'll pay out of pocket and think about insurance later. As with matters involving my cell phone carrier, my expectations regarding my insurance company aren't exactly high.
