Your first appointment from Switzerland: arrive in Lörrach well prepared
This is MeinZahnarzt's supplementary information service for the Swiss border region. Consultations and treatment take place in Lörrach-Stetten, Germany. Full practice and treatment information is available at meinzahnarzt.team.
- Clarify your concern: When enquiring, state whether you want an initial consultation, a second opinion or planning for a restoration already recommended.

When an enquiry from Switzerland is worthwhile
Many patients from Switzerland want a second assessment, clear planning or to explore an alternative restoration in Germany. This is particularly useful for more extensive treatments when documents are already available.
- Implant consultation for missing teeth or restorations that are no longer stable.
- Restoration planning with crowns, bridges, dentures or telescopic dentures.
- Second opinion on an existing treatment plan or estimate.
- Cosmetic dentistry such as whitening, veneers or tooth-coloured fillings.
- Periodontology when bleeding gums, loose teeth or bone loss are a concern.
Helpful documents for the first appointment
- Recent X-rays Panoramic X-rays, individual images or 3D scans, if available, help with the initial assessment.
- Existing plans Estimates, treatment and cost plans or treatment recommendations can be compared objectively.
- Insurance details Private supplementary insurance or Swiss insurance arrangements should always be checked personally before seeking reimbursement.
- Medication list Medical conditions and medication are particularly important for implants and surgery.
- Specific questions Write down what is unclear to you: alternatives, process, number of appointments, aftercare or cost range.
A clear recommendation: plan first, then decide
For major treatment, the decision should involve more than a single price comparison. Findings, alternatives, resilience, dental laboratory work, aftercare and whether the restoration works well in everyday life are crucial. The consultation explains these points clearly.
Dentist Basel: what patients are really looking for
Many searches for “dentist Basel” do not necessarily mean a practice directly in Basel-Stadt. Often the aim is an easily accessible dental practice near Basel, a second assessment or clear advice on implants, restorations, professional cleaning or cosmetic dentistry. This is why we state our location clearly: Lörrach-Stetten, Basler Straße 33-35, easily accessible from Basel, Riehen, Weil am Rhein, Grenzach-Wyhlen, Rheinfelden and the border region.
Existing documents are helpful for an initial overview. For more extensive treatment, clarify beforehand whether you need advice, a second opinion, specific treatment planning or long-term care.
Lörrach-Stetten rather than Basel-Stadt
The practice is located in Lörrach-Stetten, not Basel. This should be communicated clearly online: easily accessible from the border region, with a transparent German practice address and official contact channels.

Can I bring a Swiss cost estimate?
