Shanghai Stomatology Hospital: Campus Guide & How to Book an Appointment

Overview

Shanghai Stomatology Hospital (上海市口腔医院), affiliated with Fudan University, is one of China's most prestigious specialized hospitals for dental and oral health care. Founded in 1952, it is a Grade 3A specialized hospital exclusively dedicated to stomatology — the full spectrum of dental and oral medicine. The hospital is nationally recognized for its excellence in dental implants, orthodontics, oral and maxillofacial surgery, periodontics, prosthodontics, and pediatric dentistry. Its implant and orthodontics programs attract patients from across China and internationally seeking high-quality, cost-effective dental care delivered by specialist teams.

Campus Locations

Shanghai Stomatology Hospital operates across multiple campuses:

  • Main Campus (Yanan Road) — 356 Beijing West Road, Jing'an District. The flagship campus housing all major specialist dental departments.
  • Wuzhong Road Campus — Minhang District. Provides comprehensive dental services for patients in southwestern Shanghai.
  • Additional outpatient sites across Shanghai for general dental care and select specialties.

Complex specialist cases (implants, oral surgery, orthodontics) are primarily handled at the Main Campus. Confirm department location before booking.

Essential Patient Information

  • Real-name registration is mandatory. Bring the patient's original valid ID (national ID card or passport for foreign nationals). Without it, registration and self-service machines cannot be used.
  • Outpatient hours: Morning 08:00–11:30 | Afternoon 13:00–17:00. Select departments operate on weekends.
  • Emergency department: Open 24 hours for acute dental emergencies (toothache, dental trauma, abscess).
  • First visit preparation: Bring prior dental X-rays (panoramic OPG, periapical films, CBCT if available), prior treatment records, and a list of current medications. This significantly improves consultation efficiency and reduces the need for repeat imaging.
