Root canal treatment in DDS Dental Care
About the clinic
Root canal treatment at DDS Dental Care in Shanghai uses microsurgical techniques to save natural teeth. The clinic serves as a training facility for the Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Stomatology and follows North American and European dental standards. Patients can access a wide range of endodontic services, including standard treatments and complex retreatments, at their four branches across the city.
Advanced Microsurgical Techniques
The clinic uses Zumax microscopes for all root canal procedures. These tools help dentists see tiny structures inside the tooth that are invisible to the naked eye. This precision helps in finding hidden canals and removing infected tissue more accurately. High-power magnification is a key part of their microsurgical approach to endodontics.
Dentists at the facility perform several specialized procedures to protect dental health:
- Standard root canal treatment to remove infection from the inner tooth chamber.
- Complex root canal retreatment for teeth that did not heal properly after a previous procedure.
- Apicoectomy, which is a surgical method to remove the tip of the tooth root.
- Vital pulp therapy to save the living tissue inside a damaged tooth.
- Apexification and revascularization for immature teeth in younger patients.
International Standards in Shanghai
DDS Dental Care follows clinical protocols used in Europe and North America. The facility works with over 20 direct billing insurance partners, which helps international patients manage their payments. A multilingual team is available to assist patients from different backgrounds during their visit.
The clinic’s role as a university training site reflects its focus on modern dental practices. Each of the four branches is equipped to handle both routine care and difficult cases involving dental trauma or persistent infections. These methods focus on preserving the natural tooth structure whenever possible.

DDS Dental Care: more details about the clinic
DDS Dental Care is a private dental clinic established in 1999 in Shanghai. The clinic operates four branches across the city in the Xuhui, Qingpu, Pudong, and Minhang districts. Founded by Dr. William Xu, it serves both local and international residents. The facility is a dental training site for the Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Stomatology. This partnership means clinic staff also work as instructors for medical students.
Academic Standards and Global Expertise
The medical team consists of 12 doctors who follow North American and European standards. Many specialists hold Fellowship status at the International College of Dentists (ICD). Staff includes graduates from the University of Sheffield, University of Hong Kong, and University of Pennsylvania.
Dental Specialties and Aesthetic Solutions
The clinic focuses on aesthetic dentistry, restorative care, and orthodontics. Specialists treat children and adolescents, including early orthodontic correction. Restorative dentistry uses digital planning for crowns and bridges to ensure precise fitting. For periodontal health, surgeons perform gum excision and regeneration to correct "gummy smile."
Orthodontic treatments include several invisible and fixed options:
- Invisalign clear aligners
- Angelalign and Smartee systems
- E-motion aligners
- Fixed braces and removable retainers
Implantology services cover complex reconstructions using systems from Straumann, MIS, and iEZ. The surgical team performs bone augmentation, sinus lifts, and guided tissue regeneration. These procedures help patients who lack sufficient bone density for standard implants. The clinic also offers All-on-4 and All-on-6 full-arch restorations, including same-day and computer-guided options.
Diagnostic and Surgical Technology
DDS Dental Care uses digital tools to improve diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning. 3Shape CAD/CAM technology handles digital prosthetic design. For root canals, specialists use Zumax microscopes to visualize tiny structures inside the tooth that are invisible to the naked eye.
The clinic maintains diagnostic and specialized surgical equipment:
- DIAGNOCam for early detection of tooth decay without X-rays
- Cerec Omnicam for high-speed digital scanning and 3D modeling
- Panoramic and periapical X-ray systems
- EMS and Woodpecker ultrasonic bone cutting devices
Ultrasonic bone cutting helps surgeons perform extractions and bone grafting with less trauma to soft tissue. This technology uses high-frequency vibrations to cut bone while sparing nerves and blood vessels.
International Patient Services
The clinic has a multilingual team that provides services in English and Mandarin. To help international patients with finances, the clinic works with over 20 direct billing partners. These partnerships make it easier to process insurance coverage for dental treatments. All branches operate seven days a week to fit different schedules.
