Common questions
Is this suitable for everyone?
We only accept elective, stable cases. Acute or emergency cases are never accepted for cross-border travel. Suitability is always confirmed by the hospital's clinical assessment.
Why is the price shown as a range?
Your final quote depends on a personalised assessment (imaging, your clinical condition and the components or implants chosen). We confirm a sealed price before you commit to anything.
Who performs the treatment?
All medical and dental treatment is delivered by a top-6 Chinese public tertiary (Grade A) hospital, at its International Healthcare Center. Quinsai Health coordinates your journey and does not provide treatment.
