Dental implant systems in China: questions to ask

An implant brand name is only one part of a treatment plan. Ask the treating dentist which implant system, abutment and crown are proposed, why they are suitable for your case, and what follow-up will be required. A coordinator can explain booking and prices; clinical suitability must be assessed by the treating dentist.

Separate the brand, system and crown

A single-tooth quote should identify the implant system as well as the abutment and crown. Do not assume that two quotes cover the same components because they use the same brand name.

SinoCareLink's published options include DENTIUM with an Aidite crown and Straumann ITI, Roxolid and BLX options. The Straumann price depends on the selected option and crown. These names identify listed packages; they do not establish which system is suitable for an individual patient.

Questions for the treating dentist

• Which implant system, abutment and crown are proposed?
• What clinical assessment is needed before confirming the plan?
• Are extractions, bone grafting, gum treatment or a temporary crown needed and priced separately?
• How many visits are expected, and what could change their timing?
• What records and follow-up arrangements will I have after treatment?

Check the complete written quote

Compare the listed components and exclusions before choosing by price. Published packages are not a substitute for an individual treatment plan. An on-site companion, flights and accommodation are not included in the dental package.

Use the China implant package page for current choices, and the implant price scope and exclusions report for a detailed comparison.

Plan travel after the treatment sequence is clear

Start with the right kind of help

A coordinator's rough quote is free. The dentist's remote assessment and written treatment plan service costs US$19.90. The fee can be credited towards subsequent treatment. It is non-refundable except where a refund is required by law. Your statutory rights are unaffected.
