Canton Fair Visitors: Book a Health Checkup or Dental Appointment in Guangzhou
For buyers, exhibitors and accompanying travellers at the 140th Canton Fair · Guangzhou · 15 October – 4 November 2026
What we can book for you in Guangzhou during the Fair: a health checkup (US$399–1,399 by package), teeth cleaning (US$69–89) and IPS e.max porcelain veneers (US$499 per tooth) — with what each price includes and does not.
You are in Guangzhou for the Fair, not for healthcare. But if your Fair trip has a free morning — between phases, or before or after the phase you attend — a health checkup or a teeth-cleaning appointment fits into it. We arrange it in English at a published price. Book through our form and we confirm the hospital or clinic, what is included and your quote in writing before you pay.
SinoCareLink is a medical coordination service. The checkup or treatment is carried out by the hospital's doctors and the clinic's dentists, licensed in China; we book it, coordinate it and handle the paperwork in English. SinoCareLink is independent and is not affiliated with the Canton Fair or its organiser, China Foreign Trade Centre.

What we arrange
Health checkup
A morning appointment: you arrive fasting, the Essential packages take about three hours and you are usually done by lunchtime; the Premium packages include more tests and take around four to five hours. If you add sedated endoscopy, keep the rest of that day free: after sedation you should not sign contracts or drive.
| Package | Price (Guangzhou) |
|---|---|
| Men's Essential | US$399 |
| Women's Essential | US$499 |
| Men's Premium | US$599 |
| Women's Premium | US$699 |
| Personalized Screening | US$1,399 |
Included: the screening panel for your package and your results as an English report. On the day, the hospital may give you preliminary results for some tests; the full English report follows in two to three weeks, so you do not need to stay in Guangzhou for it. Each package is described on the package page. If you book through the intake form, the itemised test list comes with your written quote before you pay; if you buy directly on the package page, we send it straight after purchase.
Not included: an English-speaking medical companion at the hospital (US$50 per half day of 4 hours when booked with a checkup package, US$100 on its own; book at least 48 hours ahead — packages that include sedated endoscopy already include one); additional tests beyond your package, quoted separately and confirmed in writing first; flights, hotel and local transport.
Dental appointments
Through our partner clinic in Guangzhou — Taikang Bybo Dental — we arrange:
- Professional teeth cleaning: US$69 for a routine scale and polish, US$89 for a comfortable clean for sensitive teeth. Included: the dental examination and cleaning at your appointment, booking, and English-language coordination with the clinic before your visit and by message or phone during it. Not included: any X-ray the dentist recommends after the examination, where the clinic charges for it, and any further treatment the dentist recommends, which is priced separately.
- IPS e.max porcelain veneers: US$499 per tooth. Included: the veneer, laboratory work and fitting by the treating dentist; booking and English-language coordination with the clinic before your visit and by message or phone during it; a written treatment quotation. Not included: clinic consultation, imaging (for example CBCT) or other diagnostic fees, where the clinic charges them, at the clinic's own fees; any additional treatment the dentist recommends (for example gum treatment, veneer removal or crowns), quoted separately. Veneers remove a thin layer of enamel and cannot be reversed, so the dentist confirms whether they suit you — and how many teeth — at your first in-clinic consultation, after examination and imaging.
For both, travel and accommodation are not included. The clinic team communicates in Chinese; an English-speaking companion for a dental visit is US$100 per half day (4 hours) — the US$50 rate applies only with a health checkup package.
Veneers are made in a dental laboratory, so they take more than one clinic appointment. Tell us your Fair dates first, and we will check with the clinic how many appointments your case is likely to need before you book anything.
How to book around your Fair schedule
- Fill in the intake form. In the notes, tell us your Fair phase, the area you are staying in, the mornings you have free, and whether you are also interested in dental care.
- We confirm the hospital or clinic, what is included and your written quote before you pay.
- We request the date. The hospital or clinic confirms appointments, and a specific date cannot be guaranteed — so the earlier you tell us, the more options you have.
- We confirm the date in writing and tell you where and when to arrive. For a checkup, arrive fasting with your passport and a list of any medication you take.
Booking, your written quote and your reports are handled in English; for the hospital or clinic visit itself, an English-speaking medical companion can be added.
Entry requirements depend on your nationality. Our China visa guide keeps track of the current rules.
What we will not do
- We will not promise a specific appointment date before the hospital or clinic confirms it.
- We will not book or charge you for anything beyond your written quote unless you agree to it in writing. If the doctor or dentist recommends something extra on the day — an additional test at your checkup, or for veneers, for example, gum treatment or a crown — it is not included in your price, it is priced separately, and whether to go ahead is your decision.
- We do not diagnose or treat; the hospital's doctors and the clinic's dentists, licensed in China, do.
