According to official statistics, every year more and more citizens of Russia and other CIS countries prefer dental treatment in China. This is explained by high-quality medical care, the presence of a long-term guarantee for the services provided by specialists, as well as the affordable pricing policy of Chinese dental clinics. Even people with an average income can afford dental treatment in the territory of the PRC (People's Republic of China).
Directions of Chinese dentistry
The key thing that distinguishes dentistry in China is that it does not encourage tooth extraction. Doctors at local clinics try, whenever possible, to restore the natural health and beauty of the dental system, eliminating both congenital and acquired dental defects.
And only if this is impossible, specialists begin to remove the damaged tooth and replace it with prosthetics.
There is an extensive network of public and private dental medical institutions in the PRC. Their employees provide services in the following areas:
- Therapeutic dentistry: treatment of diseases of the oral mucosa, diseases of non-carious teeth, the fight against caries and its complications.
- Surgical dentistry: treatment of inflammatory diseases, operations to remove teeth and oral tumors, plastic surgery on the jaws, preparation for further dental prosthetics.
- Aesthetic dentistry: teeth building for cracks and chips, restoration of the shape and color of teeth, whitening, installation of lumineers, veneers and other overlays, decorating teeth with Swarovski stones and crystals.
- Orthopedic dentistry: installation of removable and fixed dentures.
- Periodontology: treatment of diseases of the periodontal tissues – periodontium.
- Orthodontics: elimination of dental anomalies, correction of bite by installing retainers, braces.
- Implantology: implantation of artificial implants into the dental bone.
- Pediatric dentistry: treatment of dental diseases in children of different ages.
When answering the question why it is better to treat teeth in China, it should be pointed out that a huge advantage of local clinics is the use of the latest equipment from Norway, Spain, the USA, France, Germany, and South Korea.
Among the employees of Chinese dental medical institutions are not only ordinary dental practitioners, but also scientists (including doctors of sciences). In their work they use modern materials, the quality of which meets international standards.
Chinese dental clinics provide a guarantee for services ranging from 2 to 20 years on average. Some medical institutions provide treatment on credit.
In many clinics you can pay for services not only in yuan, but also in foreign currency.

Dinner before Christmas 01/06/2020 REVIEWS many patients
Good afternoon, dear Alexey and Victoria! A week has already passed since I arrived from China, but the feeling of gratitude and delight from the trip and reception is still as strong as during my stay in China and Blagoveshchensk. Thank you very much for the warm welcome and organization of the entire process. From the moment we arrived in Blagoveshchensk until the meeting at customs in China, everything was so good that even the most demanding patient had nothing to complain about. A special topic of treatment and prosthetics, I, as a doctor, was somewhat scared, a foreign country, different approaches. One thing I can say is that my Chinese colleagues surprised me with their attention and skill. Great professionals, smart people, just great people. Along with prosthetics, I decided to undergo a course of massage and acupuncture. What kind of massage therapists are there! Attentive, conscientious, hardworking. In the flow of patients, with a language barrier, they remembered all my health problems and treated me very clearly and sensitively. Thank you all! Alexey, Victoria, Pasha, Misha, Lilya. What a pity that all good things end so quickly! Sincerely, L. S. Korneva

Hello..! To be honest, I was quite skeptical about a dental trip to China. But... Having visited our clinics and listened to the verdicts that I am almost a unique case, and the recovery process will not only take a lot of money, but also and a lot of time... About four or even six months... In general... After weighing all the pros and cons, and sifting through a bunch of information about dental procedures in Heihe, I decided to go on a trip... The process of reception and support during the treatment is really excellent. .Everything was well adjusted... This was already written in the comments, everything went basically the same way, so I won’t repeat it... From the very first day of being in the clinic, I was pleasantly surprised, and realized that I was in the hands of excellent specialists who work according to the principle “Less words, more action.”.They made a nutcracker out of me in a fairly short time and a moderate payment..) In general.., many thanks to Alexander (who met and then saw off on the side of Blagoveshchensk) To all the clinic specialists who took part in the gear repair process . Special thanks to Alexey, who accompanied and controlled the entire process... Everything went very comfortably. Thank you for my new teeth...! Eduard.Vladivostok.
Dentistry China. Dental prosthetics made of Zirconium. May 2018 reviews of patients from Novokuznetsk
Good day to all! Well, I finally found the time to write my review! It's been a little over a month since my wife and I returned from China after getting dentures. It took me a long time to decide, I had doubts. After contacting the dentist at the state clinic in Haihe and discussing all the details, I decided that we were going! Arriving in Blagoveshchensk, we were met by a Russian guy, Sasha, and he took us to customs, helped us quickly, without a queue, buy tickets and saw us off. Upon arrival in Haihe, we were met by dentist Lesha, with whom I discussed issues of prosthetics. And it turned out, as we say: “From the ship to the ball!” We immediately went to the clinic, where we were examined, we discussed the last moments and our mouths began to be prepared for prosthetics. I didn’t believe that in four days I would have beautiful teeth! Since I had experience with prosthetics in Russia, one bridge was made for me in a little over a week. After preparation, impressions were immediately made to make new teeth. On this day, the procedures were completed and after 15 minutes Lesha was already taking us to the hotel, which he had previously booked for us (accommodation and breakfast at the hotel had already been paid for!!!) The hotel turned out to be excellent, with an excellent location!!! The next day, at 8.30 am, Lesha was already taking us to the clinic to try on our teeth blanks. During the fitting, of course, small errors were identified, which were immediately corrected. Already at the beginning of 11 we were free and decided to take a walk. The next morning, also at 8.30, Lesha and I left the hotel and headed for prosthetics. To my surprise, the procedure took very little time and after a couple of hours I was already looking at my brand new 24 teeth in the mirror! Of course, initially I felt discomfort; they didn’t put in 2 teeth))) After Lesha’s prosthetics, he said that we needed to stay in Haihe for another day, just in case)) Well, in the evening he took us to a restaurant for dinner. Lesha’s family and 7 other people, whose teeth he did at the same time as us, were present at the dinner. Dinner was gorgeous, the table was packed!!! (dinner was paid for) In general, everything went great!!! And it was already 4 days in the morning, after Lesha examined our teeth, he took us to customs and escorted us to Russia. I thought that my communication with Lesha ended there, but a week later he called me and asked how we were feeling? My surprise knew no bounds!!! Who in Russia has ever encountered this? I haven't even once! And now time has passed. My gums have healed (they've been aching for a week), I've gotten used to the new teeth and I'm finally chewing with all my might))) What can I say? I am very glad that I turned to Lesha and can confidently recommend him to my friends and family!!!

Review from (Margarita Gadaskina, 02/01/2018)
Was in Haihe from January 21 to January 24, 2022. We met at the station, brought to customs, and everything was processed. On the other side, in China I met Lesha. He immediately took me to the clinic, gave me tea and treated me to cake and chocolate. He took me to a hotel, which by the way was free for 4 days while my teeth were being fixed. Lesha is a great guy!!!! Very responsible, he drove wherever they asked. On the last day, he fed me a delicious lunch and then sent me home. A very well-functioning team, one grinds, the other installs, in general, a conveyor belt. Well done guys! I asked for a Hollywood smile, and that’s what they did. BIG THANK YOU TO THE ENTIRE TEAM. ESPECIALLY LESS!!! With great respect MARGARITA

Hello! We are a married couple Yuri and Svetlana from the city of Severodvinsk. In October 2022, we came to Heihe to get dentures, found out about this clinic via the Internet, and called Alexey. He explained everything in detail, recommended and calculated the amount. There was a large amount of work, everything was completed in 4 days, very high quality, quickly and beautifully. In addition to dental prosthetics, the husband underwent a full range of procedures for back treatment, cleaning of blood vessels and liver. Throughout the entire time in Heihe, Alexey was always there, responded to any requests and helped with everything. We thank the entire clinic team, especially Alexey. We recommend this clinic to everyone, high quality, clear, no pitfalls / as often happens with us /, 8 year guarantee. Well done!!
From Boris
My name is Boris, I am from Yekaterinburg. I learned about this clinic from friends and became interested. I went to the clinic’s website and was convinced that there were a lot of positive reviews, and especially about the work of director Lyosha! Later, I contacted Lyosha personally and we discussed all the details of my visit to the clinic. I was pleasantly surprised that I was met at the airport and escorted to the clinic. On the very first day Lyosha started working with me. Within three days, the doctors did their job perfectly! I would like to note that the clinic provides a guarantee for its services for a period of 10 years. I express my deep gratitude to Lesha and his team for their sensitive attitude towards their clients! I was very pleased!

City: Neryungri Hello, my name is Kovaleva Alla Nikolaevna, I am from the city of Neryungri. On September 2, 2017, I underwent dental treatment in China. Only go there for dental treatment, it’s such a clinic, such staff, and the prices there are 5 times cheaper than in Russia. They will meet you from the port, take you to the hotel, help you get settled, and in addition, hotel accommodation is free for 3 days, which is good news. The crowns were installed incredibly quickly, carefully and most importantly with high quality, and you feel as if these are your real teeth. In general, I now only have my teeth treated in Heihe, I hope you will try it too and will only go there in the future.

As promised, I was met at the Blagoveshchensk airport, escorted to customs, and at the Chinese border Lyosha himself met me. In order not to waste time, we immediately went to the clinic, where I was sanitized, the old crowns were removed, and impressions were made. Afterwards we were taken to a hotel, which is provided free of charge during the treatment. On the second day there was a fitting, and on the third day I was already smiling with my new beautiful teeth))) The price was 2.5 times cheaper than in my hometown. A 10-year warranty is issued.

October 20, 2015 / City: Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky Hello. I visited you 4 months ago at the end of October 2015. Fixed prosthetics for 28 teeth. I didn’t write ahead of time, but I still need to wait some time and decide how I really feel about it. I’ll start from the beginning - I went without any recommendations, I liked on your website that it was completely described, what they make, from what, how and how much it costs. I didn’t want to go to Vladivostok, everything on the sites is sparing, some groups, time dependent, etc. I decided to go to Heihe as a “savage” and I was not mistaken. You didn’t deceive me in any way, you met me in Blagoveshchensk, took you to customs, and popularly explained that Lesha was a great guy. Then we met in Heihe, straight to the hotel (in fact, free of charge), and on the same day (at my request, although they offered to rest) straight to the clinic. A brief inspection, questioning and immediate turning. The next day was fitting, the next day they installed it. I ordered German titanium-based ceramics. They didn’t deceive me about the money either - as they initially indicated, even before arrival, 90, that’s what I paid. They gave an 8-year guarantee, with a receipt of payment and a guarantee card. After installation, I was about to leave, I didn’t like it a little in the lower right part, it seemed to be pressing, I told the translator, everything was fixed within an hour. In general, the service is at a good level, the translators are great guys, everything is cultured, competent, and prompt. They even went to the market and helped us bargain. Returned to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. It took me a long time to get used to it, even brushing my teeth was difficult, and there was quite a bit of pain in my gums. After a week and a half the pain went away, after a month I was almost completely used to it. Now I have completely adapted, my teeth are almost like my own. The view is great. Thank you for your professionalism and competent attitude towards guest clients. Health and good luck.
Diagnostic and preventive procedures
To diagnose diseases of the oral cavity in general and the dentition in particular, you should contact a dentist-therapist. A specialist of this profile will also perform:
- treatment of diseases of the oral mucosa (infectious, traumatic, symptomatic, specific stomatitis, glossitis, cheilitis);
- treatment of caries and its consequences – pulpitis, periodontitis, periostitis;
- treatment of diseases not related to caries - hypoplasia and fluorosis of enamel, increased sensitivity of teeth, necrosis of hard tissues and others.
In order to prevent dental diseases, it is necessary to visit a therapist at least once every 12 months.
For example, if you prefer dental treatment in Hunchun, for diagnosis and subsequent therapy it is recommended to contact one of the best hospitals in the city - the Xihe Clinic. The dental department of this institution provides a full range of services: from filling and tooth extraction to prosthetics and installation of implants. Xihe Hospital actively accepts Russian patients.
Stages of prosthetics
Regardless of the chosen recovery method, the patient always goes through a certain sequence of procedures.
- Diagnostics - a specialist assesses the condition of the teeth, excludes possible contraindications and selects the most optimal prosthetic option.
- Preparation - optional: replacing or improving the condition of old fillings, eliminating foci of inflammation, removing plaque, tartar, caries treatment and other hygienic procedures.
- Teeth grinding is the removal of hard tooth tissue under local anesthesia. If tissues are affected by caries, they are completely removed to avoid the development of caries under the crown. When installing veneers, grinding is usually not required.
- Preparing the impression - an impression is made for both jaws, which allows you to select the prosthesis as accurately as possible.
- Making a prosthesis - modern technologies make it possible to create a computer model. Preparing the prosthesis for an individual impression usually takes 7-12 days. During this period, the patient is fitted with a temporary crown.
- Installation begins with fitting. If no problems arise when fitting the prosthesis, the orthopedist installs and fixes the crown.
Upon completion of the work, the patient receives a guarantee certificate for the crowns. A well-chosen prosthesis will not cause discomfort and will last for many years.
Installation of dentures and implants
One of the most serious dental problems is the complete destruction of teeth, as a result of which their restoration becomes impossible. In this case, it is necessary to use methods such as prosthetics and implantation.
The entire process in China will take several days, since the latest generation computer equipment will be used in the production of artificial teeth analogues.
For example, a dental clinic in Dalian called “Vienna” offers complete dental prosthetics within 4-7 days. Here, as in other Chinese medical institutions, you can order both removable and fixed dentures.
The patient can independently fix the removable structure in the oral cavity and, if necessary, remove it. Such dentures are suitable for those who have lost a large number of teeth.
Fixed dental prosthetics in China are recommended for patients who are missing one or more teeth. Such dentures are fixed by a doctor in the oral cavity and cannot be removed while being worn. The most popular permanent structures include crowns, bridges, inlays, veneers, and lumineers.
Cheaper than in Russia, and therefore widely in demand, is dental implantation in China. For a low price in this country, you can restore either one tooth or an entire row of teeth.
Unlike dentures, which are attached to adjacent teeth, implants are inserted into the gum using metal pins. When installing implants, there is no need to grind nearby healthy teeth (which is the main disadvantage of prosthetics).
Popular Dental Hospitals
There are a lot of dental hospitals in China. Public and private clinics are located in almost every city, but not all deserve attention. The most popular destinations for dental tourism are Heihe, Hunchun, Dalian and Suifenhe.
In Suifenhe, this is the You-Ai Clinic, located in the city center. It was founded in 2000 and belongs to the Bo Ai Hospital Corporation. The hospital's medical staff consists of 20 people. All specialists are accredited, have undergone strict selection and have extensive experience in dentistry.
Dentistry “Svetlana” in Dalian can provide removable and fixed prosthetics, insert an implant, and also help with visa applications. The clinic guarantees a jewelry result of its work and provides a guarantee on fillings and crowns.
Clinics in Hunchun:
- "Far East".
- "North-East Asia".
- "Glory".
- "Tongji."
- "Dental Lux-M".
- sanatorium "Eurasia".
Hunchun offers medical tourism tours including visits to dental hospitals. During the tour you can order dentures, implantation, whitening and dental treatment. Such a trip will not only allow you to relax, but also cure oral diseases.
The most famous and frequently visited is the public hospital in the city of Heihe.
Services of pediatric dentists
The most popular areas of pediatric dentistry are therapeutic, orthodontic and surgical.
Chinese doctors pay considerable attention to the treatment of dental diseases in young children. From their point of view, problems with baby teeth also require emergency intervention, because their condition is the foundation for the formation of permanent teeth and bite.
Baby teeth destroyed by caries and affected by infection can cause serious dental diseases in the future.
The best dental clinics in China that also accept child patients are You-Ai (Mercy) and Master Sun in Heihe, Svetlana and Vienna in Dalian, a dental hospital in Urumqi and others. These medical institutions use gentle techniques, the latest generation of anesthetic drugs that are safe for children with minimal allergenic effect.

Reviews about dental treatment in China
Thousands of people visit hospitals in China every day for dental treatment or treatment. Even taking into account the long trip and difficulties with customs, everyone is satisfied with the result.
“I came from Khabarovsk for dental treatment. I was plagued by third degree pulpitis for a very long time. I tried to get it treated by our doctors, but everything was unsuccessful. I decided to go to the Celestial Empire. In China they met me, gave me an interpreter and put me up in a clean and comfortable hotel. I’m very pleased with the treatment, the doctors were great – it was quick and didn’t hurt!” Irina, 54 years old, Khabarovsk
“For a long time I dreamed of slender and white teeth. I started comparing prices, finding out how much it costs to fix my teeth in Russian dentists. Friends suggested that I go to China. I drove with caution, “Made in China” was too much in my head. But, as it turned out, I was afraid in vain. While I was resting in the hotel, the doctor made a prosthesis for my upper jaw for about a week. Now I have shining white teeth like a movie star.” Igor, 39 years old, Yekaterinburg.
For the most part, all patients of dental hospitals in the Middle Kingdom talk about good service and note the painlessness of any procedure or operation. They also indicate the professionalism of doctors.
Recommendations for choosing a dental clinic in China
For those who do not want to spend time independently preparing a trip to China for the purpose of dental treatment, so-called dental or dental tours, which are organized by many companies, have become popular. In order not to fall into the trap of scammers, first of all you should ask whether the intermediary has a license to provide travel services. An honest company will always be ready to present a document.
Having decided on a travel company, you need to study the dental tours offered to China for Russians. Find out whether a particular clinic has a license for dental treatment, what place it occupies in the ranking of similar medical institutions, how warranty cases are resolved within its walls (for example, whether you can count on reimbursement of money spent in the event of implant failure).
It also wouldn’t hurt to check out the information on the website of your favorite clinic about:
- the qualifications, professional experience and achievements of its doctors;
- technical equipment of dental offices;
- medications used;
- cost of services;
- availability of discounts and promotions for foreigners.
You should definitely read the reviews of patients who had the opportunity to go on dental tours to China. Based on the information received, you can make a rational choice in favor of one or another clinic.
Children's dentistry
The Chinese, like residents of other eastern countries, are famous for their love for children. Tourists who have visited China, Thailand or Vietnam say that local residents simply like to approach other people’s children, pat them on the head, and treat them to sweets.
In hotels and inns, guests with children are treated very well. Therefore, in China, special attention is paid to the development of pediatric medicine, in particular, pediatric dentistry.
Children rarely need dental prosthetics. Therefore, parents bring their children here for other types of treatment. Most often they undergo the following procedures:
- Fissure sealing for caries prevention
- Bridle trimming
- Treatment of extensive caries affecting a large number of teeth
Prices for these types of dental services in China are much lower than in Russia. Pediatric dentists are distinguished by their friendliness and attentive attitude towards young patients. Not every Russian clinic can meet such an attitude.
There are many hospitals in China that provide dental treatment. The most popular medical institutions are in cities such as Heihe, Hunchun, and Urumqi.
What documents are needed for the trip?
To go to China for dental treatment, you will need to prepare a package of documents:
- medical visa to China S1 (over 180 days) or S2 (up to 180 days);
- an invitation from a medical institution containing information about the clinic, the patient’s passport data, the time frame and purpose of the trip, the signature of the director and the seal of the organization;
- original and copy of foreign passport;
- original and copy of internal passport;
- a certificate from the place of work with the amount of wages for the month;
- certificate of bank account status.
If a child requires dental treatment in Manchuria or another region of China, he will need his foreign passport (if not available, a birth certificate and a photo of the child pasted into the foreign passport of the parent with whom he is traveling).
If the minor will travel only with his father or mother, the other parent must give written consent to take the child abroad and have this document certified by a notary.
Material for dental prosthetic system
The material used to make a dental prosthetic system determines the wearing comfort, especially for removable types. Compliance with manufacturing technology and quality material construction guarantee ease of use. Ideal materials for dentures have the following characteristics:
- do not cause allergies - many patients have an allergic reaction to acrylic and plastic;
- do not rub gums;
- do not stain;
- strength - the structure should last for 5-6 years.
The best acrylic prosthetic systems are considered to be orthoconstructions made of acrylic-free plastic, which do not shrink when worn and do not change color. For non-removable options, metal-free structures are used. Nylon is comfortable when worn for a long time , does not injure the gums, and looks natural. The softness of nylon allows for lighter, thinner designs than plastic options. Gingival clasps are invisible against the background of the pinkish shell, and the metal fasteners of clasp and plastic prosthetic systems located on the smile line are clearly visible.
If you want to learn more about what types of dentures are available in Heihe, full consultation on modern types of prosthetics can be obtained at the Chinese-Russian Friendship Hospital. Check out the prices for services here.
Patient reviews
We invite you to read the reviews of those who decided to choose Chinese dentistry over Russian dentistry.
Semyon, 56 years old, Khabarovsk
“From personal experience I can say: The First Dental Clinic in Heihe is the best Chinese medical institution. Two years ago I went there for treatment of periodontal disease, which I could not get rid of in my home country for more than 10 years. The doctor used a laser to remove tartar and plaque, prescribed antibiotics, and installed implants in place of the lost teeth. The procedures were absolutely painless, and most importantly, they cost three times less than in Russia. A nice bonus is that everything comes with a 10-year warranty. If you decide to get implants, I advise you to go to Heihe.”
Tamila, 62 years old, Vladivostok
“For a long time I wanted to change the denture to the lower jaw, since the previous one had become unusable. I inquired about the prices in dental clinics in my city and was horrified: I wouldn’t be able to collect that amount in the near future. My daughter suggested going to China for treatment. I went to the official website of the Svetlana clinic in Dalian, studied the prices, and paid for a dental tour to this hospital for me. My prosthesis was ready within 3 days - I couldn’t even dream of such a pace!”
Karina, 32 years old
I was treated for deep caries at the Urumqi State Hospital. Repairing each tooth cost 595 rubles. They gave me a discount as a foreign patient, for which special thanks! All seals are provided with a 6-year warranty, which is confirmed by a warranty certificate. I can say with confidence that dentistry in Urumqi is a symbiosis of high quality, professional approach and affordable cost.

Bottom line
Dental tourism to China is growing in popularity. Patients from the CIS countries are attracted by affordable prices for treatment, the professionalism of Chinese doctors, the use of innovative materials and instruments by specialists, and the fast pace of performing even the most complex medical procedures (in particular, installation of implants and prostheses).
Many foreigners prefer to bring children to China for treatment, since this country gives preference to gentle methods and the safest drugs.
What is the cost of dental implantation in dentistry in China?
The cost of installing implants depends on:
- design brands;
- the condition of the patient’s bone tissue;
- crown material;
- number of implanted units.
The first visit to the dentist is free. The doctor sanitizes the oral cavity and decides on the possibility of implantation. Provides treatment for dental diseases. During the examination, the specialist also identifies pathologies that may become an obstacle to the implantation of an artificial root.
The difference between the cost of services in the Russian Federation and China is about 30%. The minimum price for implantation in China is 28 thousand rubles for the entire package of services.
