About Canal Dental Group
Canal Dental Group is a full-service dental practice occupying the sixth floor of 196 Canal Street in Manhattan’s Chinatown, serving patients from lower Manhattan, the surrounding boroughs, and across the New York metro area. The practice provides both general dentistry and a comprehensive range of specialty dental services, which allows patients to manage most or all of their dental needs at a single location without managing multiple referrals and providers.
Preventive and general services include professional dental cleanings, oral examinations, and dental X-rays. The practice accommodates same-day appointments for patients experiencing acute tooth pain or dental emergencies, and patients without an established dentist in the area have been seen within hours of contacting the office for urgent issues including sudden cavity pain.
Restorative services cover a wide range of needs: fillings, dental crowns, root canal treatment (endodontics), dental extractions, oral surgery, and dental implants. Periodontal services for gum disease treatment, including scaling and deep cleanings as well as periodontal maintenance, are offered for patients with gum health concerns. Dentures are provided for patients requiring full or partial tooth replacement solutions.
Cosmetic and orthodontic treatments include teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, and orthodontic correction through Invisalign and traditional braces. Pediatric patients are also seen at this practice, making it an option for families who want to consolidate both adult and children’s dental care in a single location. The practice is noted for clear pricing for out-of-pocket patients and approaches treatment recommendations transparently, including conservative options for patients who prefer to start with the least invasive approach.
Canal Street in Chinatown is one of the most transit-accessible locations in lower Manhattan. Subway lines including the J/Z, 4/5/6, N/Q/R/W, and A/C/E all stop within a short walk of the building. Elevator access is available from street level to the sixth floor. The location is convenient for patients from the Lower East Side, Tribeca, SoHo, the Financial District, and for patients traveling from across Brooklyn and Queens who use the nearby transit connections.

The hygienist Yuki is extremely friendly and professional. She explained every single detail during the whole process. Dr Zu is of course the best dentist I have as I have go to him for over 10 years. The front desk staffs are always so attentive and helpful. Thank you all for providing such an excellent service. Really appreciate all of you! Keep up the great work! Today, 9/11, I come for my 6 month follow up and again my hygienist Yuki performed the cleaning for me. She is really such a pro and so nice. She explained every step of the way. I am so honored to have her as my hygienist. Thank you
Great experience! The staff is friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. The service is excellent, and they always make sure I’m well taken care of. Highly recommend!
I had a great experience at Canal Dental Group! From the moment I walked in, Dr. Sandy Wu and her team made me feel welcome and at ease. She took the time to explain what she was doing every step of the way and made sure I was comfortable throughout my cleaning and exam. The office itself was clean and clearly well managed. I left feeling well taken care of and the appointment was smooth from start to finish! Dr. Wu is fantastic and highly recommend her if you are looking for great dental care.
Extremely happy about my visit 💯. Dr Qiu was absolutely amazing, so much expertise, knowledge, helpfulness and caring. I honestly never imagined I could receive dental service of this high quality. I actually have been going to another high ranking dental service for years, and had to find an alternative when they're on vacation. What a big pleasant surprise! I'm so glad I found them and they're my favorite now. The staff were great too. No waiting either, I guess because they're relatively new? The best! ❤️
I had the deep clean procedure this past Thursday and was very impressed with my dental hygienist Yuki’s professional skills and attitude. Her voice is so gentle and comforting, always letting me know what is going on and what the feeling would be ahead of time, she also makes encouragements throughout the whole procedure. She was very thorough with the cleaning results, she checked three times with X ray imaging to make sure that all the problem spots are clean. I was also very impressed with the whole atmosphere of the practice, from the receptionist to the practice manager to the owner dentist, everyone was so nice, I felt so relaxed in this friendly environment. I like the location of the Dental Clinic too. It sits in the center of Chinatown in manhattan. Before and after I got my teeth cleaned I got the chance to go to some delicious authentic Chinese restaurants and a few takeouts shops. My family loves everything I brought home! I highly recommend this Dental Clinic！
The dentist and receptionist were all super friendly and sweet. I had to get a root canal procedure done which isn’t fun… From beginning to end they were very attentive to my needs and made sure I had no discomforts. 10/10 would recommend to my friends!
Friendly, respectful and professional
Best cleaning I have ever had. The hygienist didn't just scrape and rush me out; she used the ultrasonic scaler and then went in manually to get the stubborn spots. My teeth feel like glass. PS Sharleen has the hands of an angel! love her
