Dental check-up
The real dental check-up
What if we finally took the time to understand what goes on in your mouth?
We’ve rethought the concept of dental check-ups: taking our time, giving you all the explanations you need for a 100% CHD check-up.

Transparent Explanation of Examinations :
During your consultation, we analyse the tests and explain them to you clearly and transparently. Remember: the reduction of pathologies depends on your involvement in the treatment. The more you know, the more you want to know, the better you’ll do for your oral health. It’s what we call a virtuous circle.
Rates
| Dental check-up including X-rays | 95.- |
| Dental check-up with X-rays as part of the Clean package | 50.- |
Full clinical and radiological examination
During this consultation, we carry out a thorough clinical and radiological examination, accompanied by photographs to illustrate what you cannot see. X-rays are essential because they reveal details invisible to the naked eye, enabling us to detect and analyse what’s going on between your teeth.
Detailed clinical explanations
This clinical data enables us to understand why you develop cavities between your teeth, why your chewing is unbalanced, or why certain teeth are more worn. Like detectives, we analyse these factors in order not only to treat problems in the short term, but also to prevent their recurrence in the long term.
Fair & transparent prices
We strive to maintain unbeatable value for money: reasonable prices, which have not changed since 2016, for quality of care that has earned us numerous awards:
Advice
After gathering clinical data, you will understand that certain teeth need to be treated, while others need to be monitored.
You don’t need to remember which teeth are which, as everything is recorded in your medical file.
Treatment sessions are scheduled according to priority, and you will be given an estimate for the next treatment. It should be noted that this estimate cannot be exceeded under any circumstances.
What’s the nicest thing you can hear after a CHD check-up? “This is the first time anyone has taken the time to explain all this to me”.

Once your treatments are complete, your next appointment (recall) will be scheduled as part of the personalised follow-up offered by CHD. This is based on your lifestyle, the quality of your saliva and other medical parameters, so as to keep your oral health at an optimum level. And you don’t have to worry about it any more, we’ll take care of reminding you: text message, letter, email, it’s your choice!

In dentistry, when we talk about “prophylaxis”, we mean all the measures that can be taken to prevent the onset or spread of dental disease. The oral check-up is part of this, and consists of a thorough clinical and radiological examination, as well as the taking of photographs to illustrate what you cannot see for yourself and what we feel is important to analyse together.
Oral check-ups at CHD are very straightforward. First of all, you are comfortably seated in the chair. The hygienist or dentist will then carry out the necessary tests (visual examination, X-rays, photographs) in your mouth.
Finally, the practitioner will give you a detailed and very clear explanation of the state of your oral health and tell you about any treatment you may need.
At CHD, we offer two different packages:
A dental check-up with X-rays included costs CHF 95;
A dental check-up with X-rays included, as part of the “Clean” package, costs CHF 50, i.e. when it is preceded by an appointment with the hygienist.
Check-ups may sometimes be covered if you have taken out supplementary insurance.)
The frequency of dental check-ups depends mainly on your situation. In general, an annual appointment is sufficient to ensure optimum prevention. But if you are undergoing special dental treatment, or if your oral health requires it, you may need to have several check-ups in a single year.
Would you like a concrete example? Monitoring patients with gum disease, otherwise known as “periodontitis”, may include dental deep cleaning sessions to thoroughly clean out periodontal pockets.
Ask your hygienist for more information.
The purpose of an oral and dental check-up (ODC) is to ensure that everything is stable and, if not, to identify current or future dental problems in a patient’s mouth.
In practical terms, a check-up can lead to all kinds of treatment, such as wisdom teeth extraction, orthodontic treatment, the fitting of an anti-bruxism mouthguard, cavity treatment (filling), scaling and polishing, etc.
The length of a full dental check-up varies according to the condition of the patient’s mouth.
In general, you should allow around 45 minutes for the check-up.
Absolutely! Oral check-ups are essential at any age, even for young children. They help to reduce the risk of developing oral problems, such as tooth decay, enamel reduction, tooth misalignment, early plaque formation or jaw misalignment.
So plan a dental check-up for your children from the age of 3, i.e. when all their milk teeth are present.
At CHD, we want to offer you the best possible experience during your treatment.
The dental check-up at CHD includes all X-rays for a fixed fee of €95. Our aim is to understand and communicate everything that’s going on in your mouth, no matter how long it takes. The dental check-up also includes the taking of 5 photographs to illustrate the pathologies in the mouth and enable you to understand the active phenomena involved. Finally, artificial intelligence (AI) software enables us to detect any cavities present.
In terms of services, you will be seated in a memory foam dental chair. During the session, you can also watch your favourite Netflix series or listen to music, equipped with Bose headphones. Finally, at the end of your appointment, we’ll bring you a warm, scented towel to relax you completely.
The best way to prepare for your oral check-up is to adopt impeccable daily hygiene: the better you look after your teeth every day, the better the check-up will go. Above all, don’t hesitate to make a note of any questions you find useful or not, so that our dentist can take the time to answer them!
