Fees & insurance

Fees depend on the assessment required

A check-up may generally range from about CHF 80 to 200, with X-rays and additional tests charged according to the care provided and DENTOTAR®. Routine dental care is generally not covered by Swiss compulsory health insurance; statutory exceptions and supplementary cover depend on the individual case and policy.

FAQ

Dental check-up questions, answered

How often should I have a dental check-up?

There is no single interval for everyone. Your decay risk, gum health, age, treatments and history determine the recall period recommended by the dentist.

Are X-rays taken at every visit?

No. Their indication and timing depend on the examination, your previous images and the expected clinical benefit.

When should a child first visit the dentist?

An early, calm visit helps a child become familiar with the practice and gives parents age-appropriate preventive advice. The dentist then recommends an individual recall interval.

What happens if treatment is needed?

The diagnosis, urgency, alternatives and estimated cost are discussed before non-emergency treatment is arranged.
