The Swedish Parliament has now decided on the new high-cost protection special dental care reimbursement – also known as ten-tooth care. It will come into effect on 1 January 2026.

Patricia De Palma, Head of Dental Care at University Dental Care, is positive about the decision.
"We will continue to work with the same high level of patient safety and quality as before," says Patricia.
Ten-tooth care means that people aged 67 and over pay 10 per cent of the cost of certain treatments – the state covers the remaining 90 per cent. Ten-tooth care applies at our Lärarkliniken and Specialistkliniken clinics.
