Zahnbehandlung in Baden-Württemberg, ohne Flug −28%

"Parking right in front of the door, on time both visits, no fuss. And proper coffee while you wait."

"Coming from Solothurn it is about two hours, but the point is I can come back for a check-up without booking a flight or a hotel. Did exactly that six months after the implant went in, took twenty minutes and I was home for dinner."

"Good practice, but read the opening hours before you drive over. I crossed the border at half one on a Wednesday and stood in front of a locked door until half two. That's my own fault, but the website could make the lunch closure harder to miss. The treatment itself, a crown prep with Dr Läufer, was quick and gentle."

"Sabine the hygienist is thorough and does not lecture you. A reminder comes by post every six months, which is the only reason I actually go."

"Two crowns. My quote in Aarau was 3,400 francs, here it came to roughly 1,900 once converted, and they let me pay in francs without inventing their own exchange rate. Dr Trenkle goes through the plan on paper before anything starts."

"The dentistry is careful and the hygiene appointment was worth the drive. My problem is getting in. Two treatment rooms and two dentists meant nine weeks of waiting for an implant consultation, and since Friday finishes at midday there is almost nothing left for people who cannot take a weekday morning off. Fine if you can plan months ahead, frustrating if you cannot."

"Zwei Implantate bei Dr. Trenkle. Vorher gab es einen schriftlichen Heil- und Kostenplan, an den er sich auf den Euro gehalten hat. Von Basel sind es 45 Minuten und man parkt direkt am Haus, mitten im Grünen am Waldrand. Das ist für mich der halbe Grund."

"Long review because I researched this for months. Three visits: consultation and plan in January, implant placed in February, crown in May. The Kostenplan listed every item with a price and the final invoice matched it, which my Swiss insurer accepted without a single question. Total was a little over half of what I was quoted in Basel, not the 70 per cent you read about for Hungary, but I drove home the same afternoon each time."
