Why Does Dental Work Cost Less in Vietnam?

Many patients wonder whether lower prices mean lower quality. The answer is no. Dental treatment at Picasso Dental Clinic costs less because of lower operating costs in Vietnam, not because of any compromise in quality.

Lower Operating Costs

Rent, utilities, staff salaries, and general operating expenses in Vietnam are significantly lower than in the United States, United Kingdom, or Australia. This allows clinics like Picasso Dental Clinic to offer the same treatments at much lower prices.

Same Quality Materials

Picasso Dental Clinic uses the same internationally certified dental materials and implant systems available in Western countries. Our Straumann and Nobel Biocare implants are identical to those placed by dentists in New York, London, or Sydney.

Highly Trained Dentists

Vietnamese dentists undergo rigorous university training and many pursue additional certifications internationally. The quality of clinical work at leading clinics in Vietnam is comparable to that in any developed country.

No Insurance Overhead

In many Western countries, dental clinics carry significant costs related to insurance billing, administrative overhead, and compliance. The simpler healthcare system in Vietnam reduces these costs, and the savings are passed on to patients.

Payment Options

Picasso Dental Clinic offers several convenient payment options:

  • Cash – Vietnamese Dong (VND) or US Dollars (USD)
  • Bank Transfer – domestic and international transfers accepted
  • Credit and Debit Cards – Visa, Mastercard, and other major cards accepted
  • Installment Plans – available for larger treatment plans; ask our team for details

All prices can be quoted in USD, and we provide detailed invoices for patients who wish to claim dental expenses through their insurance or for tax purposes.

Free Consultation

Picasso Dental Clinic offers free initial consultations for all patients. During your consultation, our dentists will:

  • Examine your teeth and oral health
  • Take any necessary X-rays or scans
  • Discuss your treatment options
  • Provide a detailed treatment plan with transparent pricing

For international patients, we also offer free online consultations before your trip. Send us your dental records, X-rays, or photos, and we will prepare a personalized treatment plan with cost estimates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are your prices fixed or do they change?

Our prices are competitive and stable. However, the final cost depends on the complexity of your individual case. We always provide a detailed treatment plan with clear pricing before starting any work.

Is there an extra charge for international patients?

No. Picasso Dental Clinic charges the same prices for all patients regardless of nationality.

Can I get an estimate before traveling to Vietnam?

Yes. Send us your X-rays, photos, and a description of the treatment you need, and we will provide a detailed cost estimate before you book your trip.

Do you accept dental insurance?

We do not bill insurance companies directly. However, we provide detailed invoices and treatment records that you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement. Many international insurance plans and dental savings plans cover dental work done abroad.

Procedure Breakdown: What Each Treatment Involves

Understanding what goes into each procedure helps explain the pricing and lets you make an informed decision before booking your dental trip to Vietnam.

Dental Implants: $800 – $1,500 per implant

A single dental implant consists of three components: the titanium post placed into the jawbone, the abutment connector, and the porcelain crown on top. The surgical placement takes 45–90 minutes under local anaesthesia, followed by an osseointegration period of 3–6 months before the crown is attached. Picasso Dental Clinic uses Straumann, Nobel Biocare, and Osstem implant systems — the same globally recognised brands used in clinics in Sydney, London, and New York. Our quoted price includes the implant, abutment, and crown, with no hidden fees.

For patients requiring All-on-4 or All-on-6 full-arch rehabilitation, the treatment uses four or six strategically placed implants to support a full arch of fixed teeth. This solution is ideal for patients with significant tooth loss or those who have been wearing full dentures. The procedure can often be completed in a single visit with teeth attached the same day (“teeth in a day”), and the final fixed prosthesis is fitted after osseointegration.

Porcelain and Zirconia Crowns: $180 – $350 per crown

A dental crown is a cap that fits over a damaged, decayed, or weakened tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. At Picasso Dental Clinic, we offer E.max (lithium disilicate) porcelain crowns and monolithic zirconia crowns — both premium materials that deliver excellent aesthetics and durability. The crown process typically involves two appointments: tooth preparation and impressions on day one, and crown bonding after 3–5 days when the dental laboratory has fabricated the restoration. Temporary crowns are provided between appointments.

Zirconia crowns are particularly durable and recommended for molars or patients who grind their teeth, while E.max crowns deliver the most lifelike translucency for front teeth. Both are fabricated in certified dental laboratories and carry a full quality guarantee.

Porcelain Veneers: $250 – $400 per tooth

Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic shells bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve their colour, shape, and alignment. They are an excellent solution for discolouration, chipped edges, gaps between teeth, and minor misalignment. The preparation involves removing a thin layer of enamel (0.3–0.7mm), after which impressions are sent to the dental laboratory. Temporary veneers protect your teeth during the 4–7 day fabrication period. At Picasso Dental Clinic, we use E.max (Ivoclar Vivadent) and feldspathic porcelain veneers produced by our certified laboratory partners.

For a full smile transformation of 8–10 upper front veneers, the total cost at Picasso Dental Clinic ranges from approximately $2,000–$4,000. The same treatment in Australia or the UK would typically cost $10,000–$25,000.

Root Canal Treatment: $100 – $250 per tooth

Root canal therapy removes infected or inflamed pulp tissue from inside the tooth, cleans and shapes the root canals, and seals the tooth to prevent reinfection. The treatment usually takes one to two appointments and is performed under local anaesthesia. Most patients find it no more uncomfortable than having a filling placed. After root canal therapy, the tooth is typically restored with a crown for long-term protection. Picasso Dental Clinic uses rotary endodontic systems and digital X-rays to ensure thorough cleaning and accurate treatment.

Teeth Whitening: $150 – $250

Professional in-clinic teeth whitening uses a high-concentration peroxide gel activated by a laser or LED light to break down stains on the enamel surface. At Picasso Dental Clinic, our Zoom laser whitening sessions take approximately 60–90 minutes and can lighten teeth by 6–10 shades in a single visit. We also offer take-home whitening kits with custom-fitted trays for ongoing maintenance. Whitening results last 1–2 years with proper aftercare, and top-up treatments are available at a reduced cost for returning patients.

Invisalign and Clear Aligners: $2,500 – $4,500

Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear plastic aligners to gradually move teeth into alignment. Treatment begins with a digital scan of your teeth, which is used to create a 3D treatment simulation so you can see the expected result before committing to treatment. Aligners are worn for 20–22 hours per day and changed every 1–2 weeks. The total number of aligners depends on the complexity of the case. Picasso Dental Clinic is an authorised Invisalign provider and offers both full Invisalign and Invisalign Lite for minor corrections.


Dental Costs by City: Hanoi vs. Ho Chi Minh City vs. Da Nang

Vietnam’s dental costs vary slightly across its major cities, depending on local operating costs, the concentration of international-standard clinics, and the availability of dental tourism infrastructure.

ProcedureHanoiHo Chi Minh CityDa Nang
Single Dental Implant$800 – $1,500$900 – $1,600$750 – $1,400
All-on-4 (per arch)$5,000 – $8,000$5,500 – $9,000$4,800 – $8,000

Porcelain Veneer$250 – $400$270 – $450$230 – $400
Zoom Whitening$150 – $250$160 – $270$140 – $230
Invisalign (full)$2,500 – $4,500$2,800 – $5,000$2,400 – $4,500
Root Canal$100 – $250$120 – $280$90 – $240

Hanoi is home to a large concentration of internationally trained dentists and premium clinics, keeping prices competitive despite its cosmopolitan status. Picasso Dental Clinic operates from two Hanoi locations in the Old Quarter (Ba Dinh) and Westlake Square.

Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) tends to have slightly higher prices for cosmetic and implant work, reflecting higher commercial rents in the city centre and a larger expat population. The city has excellent dental infrastructure and a wide range of clinics.

Da Nang generally offers the lowest prices of the three major cities, partly due to lower operating costs. The city is increasingly popular as a dental tourism stopover for patients combining treatment with a beach holiday in Central Vietnam.

For most international patients, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City offer the best combination of clinical quality, specialist availability, and competitive pricing. Picasso Dental Clinic’s Hanoi locations are within easy reach of Noi Bai International Airport, which has direct flights from major Australian, Asian, and regional hubs.
