The Short Answer
A 14-day itinerary is a realistic first-trip length for Australian patients considering All-on-4 full-arch implants in Hanoi, allowing for consultation, CBCT scanning, extraction (if needed), implant placement across the arch, and a longer recovery observation window than a single-implant case requires. It is not a same-day-teeth guarantee — whether a temporary bridge can be fitted during this trip, and how quickly, depends entirely on your bone density and gum condition as assessed by your dentist. The final, permanent full-arch prosthesis is fitted on a separate second trip months later, once the implants have fully integrated.
Who This Itinerary Suits
This 14-day plan is aimed at patients who:
- Are considering All-on-4 (or All-on-5/6) full-arch implant treatment for one or both jaws
- May need extractions of remaining teeth alongside implant placement
- Want a longer recovery buffer given the more extensive nature of full-arch surgery compared to a single implant
- Understand that a temporary prosthesis, not the final one, is what this trip may deliver — subject to clinical assessment
If you’re only replacing one or two teeth, this itinerary is longer than you need — see the days needed for one implant guide instead.
Day-by-Day Itinerary
| Day | Activity |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | Arrive via Noi Bai International Airport |
| Day 2 | Consultation, CBCT scan, treatment plan confirmation |
| Day 3 | Any necessary extractions |
| Day 4–5 | Rest and initial healing |
| Day 6 | All-on-4 implant placement surgery |
| Day 7–9 | Recovery days, light activity only |
| Day 10 | Post-op check; temporary bridge fitting if your dentist confirms you’re ready |
| Day 11–13 | Adjustment period, further checks as needed, limited sightseeing if cleared |
| Day 14 | Final pre-departure check and flight home |
Whether a temporary bridge is fitted on Day 10 or later in this window is a case-by-case clinical decision, not a fixed milestone — your dentist confirms readiness from healing progress, not the calendar.
What This Trip Includes Clinically
- Consultation and CBCT scan
- Extractions, if required
- All-on-4 (or All-on-5/6) implant placement per arch
- A temporary bridge, if your dentist’s assessment supports fitting one during this visit
- Post-op reviews before you fly home
It does not include the final, permanent prosthesis (acrylic bridge, titanium/BioHPP bar, or overdenture) — that is fitted on a second trip once full integration is confirmed by imaging, typically several months later.

*Approximate AUD conversion from VND list pricing as of 21 July 2026 — directional only, ask for the current quote in AUD at time of booking since exchange rates move. VND is the source of truth. Prosthesis add-ons (acrylic bridge, titanium/BioHPP bar, or overdenture) are quoted separately once your treatment plan is finalised; the warranty terms for All-on-X prosthetics are not something we state a fixed period for here — ask your dentist to confirm current terms directly.
Why the Old Quarter Flagship Suits a Full-Arch Case
Full-arch implant treatment is more involved than a single implant, so continuity of care matters. Dr. Tran Thanh Phong has performed All-on-4 immediate loading since 2010 — the first Vietnamese dentist to do so — and has treated more than 1,000 All-on-4 patients from his base at the Hanoi Old Quarter flagship, 16 Phố Châu Long, Ba Đình. The location is walking distance from Trúc Bạch Lake, close to West Lake (Hồ Tây), and a short taxi from the Old Quarter, roughly 35–45 minutes from Noi Bai International Airport — useful for the longer recovery stretch this itinerary requires.
Questions to Ask Before You Book
- Based on my scan, is All-on-4 the right option for me, or would All-on-5/6 be recommended?
- Will I be able to leave Hanoi with a temporary bridge, or only healing caps?
- What is the realistic gap before my second trip for the final prosthesis?
- What is included in the itemised AUD quote — extractions, grafting, the prosthesis itself?
- What is the current warranty position on the prosthesis, and can you confirm it in writing?
Your Next Step
A full-arch treatment plan cannot be finalised without your dentist reviewing a current CBCT scan — send yours for a remote assessment before committing to a 14-day itinerary or non-refundable flights. Request a remote implant assessment and itemised quote so your plan, timeline, and AUD budget are all confirmed in advance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I leave Hanoi with permanent teeth after 14 days?
Not the final permanent prosthesis — that’s fitted on a second trip after full integration, typically months later. Some patients may be assessed as suitable for a temporary bridge within this 14-day visit, but that is confirmed by your dentist, not guaranteed in advance.
Is All-on-4 the same as “same-day teeth”?
All-on-4 can sometimes support a temporary bridge soon after surgery in suitable cases, but this depends on individual bone quality and stability confirmed at the time of surgery — it is not promised for every patient.
How much does All-on-4 cost in Hanoi in AUD?
Indicatively AUD 7,570–13,330 per arch depending on implant brand (Osstem through Nobel Biocare/Straumann), before prosthesis add-ons. Get an itemised quote for your specific case.
What happens if I need extractions first?
These are typically done early in the 14-day trip, with a short healing window before implant placement — your dentist’s plan will sequence this based on your existing teeth condition.
How long until the second trip for the final prosthesis?
This varies by patient and is confirmed by imaging, but plan for several months of healing before your dentist confirms you’re ready for the final fitting trip.
