Frequency and fees
There is no universal schedule. Many patients attend once or twice a year, while gum disease, implants, orthodontics or rapid calculus build-up may justify shorter intervals. Your individual recall is set after assessment.
An indicative hygiene appointment may cost approximately CHF 140–200, depending on duration and clinical needs. The clinic confirms the expected fee before care. See our fees and insurance guide.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a dentist and a dental hygienist?
A dentist diagnoses and treats dental disease. A hygienist or preventive-care professional focuses on plaque and calculus removal, gum prevention and home-care coaching. They work together when diagnosis or further treatment is required.
Does professional cleaning hurt?
Most appointments are well tolerated. Sensitivity can occur, especially with inflamed gums or exposed root surfaces. Tell the clinician what you feel so the technique, instruments and pacing can be adjusted.
How often should I book a hygiene appointment?
The interval depends on gum health, previous disease, implants, orthodontics, smoking, home care and calculus formation. A personalised recommendation is more appropriate than a fixed rule for everyone.
Is dental hygiene reimbursed in Switzerland?
Routine preventive dental care is generally not covered by compulsory Swiss health insurance. Some supplementary policies may contribute under their own limits and exclusions. Check your contract and obtain confirmation directly from your insurer.
