Dental Care and Oral Surgery: The Shanghai Ninth Hospital Experience

For routine cleanings, many expats visit private dental clinics. However, for complex procedures such as wisdom tooth extractions, difficult root canals, dental implants, or maxillofacial surgery, the absolute gold standard in Shanghai is the Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital.

Unmatched Clinical Volume and Expertise

Affiliated with the Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, the 'Ninth Hospital' sees an incredible volume of complex oral cases daily. This high throughput means their surgeons possess a level of experience and precision that is hard to match globally.

Cost-Effective Implants and Orthodontics

Many expats find that major dental work, such as getting a titanium implant or starting orthodontic treatment (like Invisalign), is significantly more affordable here than in the US or Europe, without compromising on the quality of materials used.

Navigating the Clinics

The stomatology department is divided into highly specialized sub-departments (e.g., Implantology, Endodontics, Oral Surgery). Knowing exactly which department to register for is the first hurdle. Furthermore, while the surgical skill is world-class, chair-side bedside manner may be more direct and less conversational than you are used to.
