Shipping of dental equipment from China

Chinese businesses are actively developing and expanding the production of equipment for dental clinics. Today, more than 25 % of large dental equipment worldwide comes from China. In terms of quality and functionality, the products are as good as their Western analogues, and are 2–4 times cheaper.

Working with Chinese suppliers on your own has lots of hidden hazards: from ignorance of the language and mentality to errors in the preparation of accompanying documentation. Asia-West takes care of the purchase and shipping of equipment from China to the UAE.

What dental equipment can I order in China?

Chinese suppliers focus on the consumer’s interests, so all new developments quickly go into mass production. Fierce competition is a strong incentive for each company to monitor quality standards, and low labour costs, the use of internally sourced raw materials and large production volumes allow to maintain low prices.

More and more clinics in the UAE are purchasing high-tech dental equipment from China. Local manufacturers produce:

• dental equipment that enables a comfortable and ergonomic working environment;
• compressor equipment;
• turbine handpieces;
• wall-mounted and portable X-ray equipment and X-ray sensors for transforming images into digital form and displaying them on a computer screen;
• autoclaves for processing dental instruments;
• endodontic micromotors for canal treatment;
• obturation systems for filling;
• piezosurgery equipment;
• apex locators to determine root canal;
• physiodispensers for dental implant placement;
• dental instruments and small dental equipment;

A number of brands have national and international patents. Major dental equipment manufacturers in China include: JinTai, Fengdan (Pragmatic), Mercury, Siger, Legrin, Azimut, Victor, Fona and Ajax.
