Who this page is for
- Missing teeth, with questions about implants, bridges or dentures
- Teeth that need crowns, root canal treatment or complex fillings
- Worn or damaged teeth needing a full-mouth restoration plan
What assessment and treatment usually involve
Missing teeth can be replaced with dentures (complete or partial), bridges fixed to other teeth, or dental implants, which are fixed to the jawbone to replace the roots of teeth and can support crowns or some types of dentures.1
To make dentures the dentist measures the mouth with putty or a scan; making them usually takes a few weeks, with another appointment for fitting.1
Root canal treatment removes an infection from inside a tooth and usually takes 2 or more appointments. A crown may be needed if the tooth was badly infected.2
What YituCare coordinates at each step
- Free enquiry Tell us what you need on the form or on WhatsApp. Our first reply, within 24 hours, tells you the city, the type of hospital and the department that fit your request.
- Case review & hospital match A coordinator organises your records, translates a summary and asks 1–2 departments at hospitals we work with whether they can accept your case. The written reply comes within 3–5 working days of receiving your complete records, names the hospital and includes the hospital’s estimate.
- Appointments and dates We request the consultation, tests or admission with the hospital and keep you informed; the hospital confirms the appointment.
- In China Airport pickup, hotel arrival and hospital transfers, and, if you book it, a bilingual companion on hospital days.
- After treatment We collect your discharge documents, arrange translations you need and pass follow-up questions between you and the hospital team after you return home.
Dental restoration often needs several appointments; we ask the clinic for the full sequence of visits before you book travel.

Case Review & Hospital Match
We do not publish treatment prices: they depend on the hospital’s review of your records. The hospital’s estimate comes through the Case Review & Hospital Match (USD 129), whose written reply names the hospital and sets out what the hospital proposes.
YituCare coordinates; it does not diagnose or prescribe. The hospital’s doctors make all clinical decisions and confirm appointments, and medical fees are paid directly to the hospital.
Questions about this treatment
Can implants be done in a single trip?+
Our sources do not give a general timeline for implants. The dental team proposes the sequence of visits after reviewing your X-rays; we ask for it before you book travel.
Do I need to bring X-rays?+
If you have recent dental X-rays or a jaw CT, bring the image files; they help the team plan.
How do I start?+
Send a free enquiry on the form or on WhatsApp. If you already have recent records and want to know which hospital can accept your case and what it would cost, book the case review.
When do I learn the hospital’s and the doctor’s names?+
Our first reply tells you the city, the type of hospital and the department. The hospital’s name is given when you book a paid service: the case review’s written reply names the hospital. For a specialist opinion, the doctor’s name and hospital are given after payment.
