He received his dental degree from the University of Bern in 1995 and is board certified in periodontology by both the Swiss perio society SSP and the EFP. Following a research fellowship at the University of Michigan, US, he focused on the implementation of motivational interviewing for behavioural support in patients with periodontitis and SPC. His book "Health Behaviour Change in the Dental Practice" is a reference in this field.

Professor Ramseier has developed software for dental education and periodontal care, and holds certificates in higher education and statistical data science. Also, he has contributed to several EFP’s Perio Workshop scientific consensus meetings. His awards include the ADEE Mature Career Educator's Award, the SSP Hans Mühlemann Research Prize, the EFP Digital Innovation Award (2nd prize in 2023), and the Jaccard-EFP Research Prize in Periodontology.
