Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I need to stay in Shanghai for dental implants?

A single implant typically requires 2–3 visits over 5–7 days for placement. If bone grafting is needed, you may need a second trip after 3–6 months for the crown. OriEast helps plan the optimal schedule.

Are the implant brands the same as in the US?

Yes. Shanghai clinics use the same major implant systems — Straumann (Switzerland), Nobel Biocare (Sweden), and Osstem (South Korea). China's government procurement policy reduces the material cost without changing the product.

Does OriEast provide translation during dental appointments?

Yes. OriEast provides bilingual support during consultations and procedures, translates treatment plans and records, and coordinates follow-up communication with your clinic.
