Swiss Health Survey 2002-2022 Oral health has improved over the last twenty years

Oral health has improved over the last twenty years

07.04.2025 - There has been a marked improvement in the oral health of the population in Switzerland over the last twenty years. In 2022, more than seven out of ten people in Switzerland described the state of their teeth and gums as good or very good and 44% had a complete set of natural teeth, compared with 33% in 2002. However, people's oral health also reflects marked social inequalities, whether in terms of accessing dental health services, dental hygiene or the general condition of their teeth and gums. These are some of the results of the most recent publication by the Federal Statistical Office (FSO).
