  • Positions #2–10 are other real, established Vietnamese clinics worth knowing, listed in no strict order — the only ranked claim here is the #1 pick.
  • Choose on substance, not slogans: surgeon volume and seniority, recognised implant brands, genuine English-speaking care, transparent pricing and a real aftercare plan.

If you are researching the best dental clinics in Vietnam for dental implants, the honest first thing to say is that "best" depends on your case, your budget and where you want to travel. But after working through the field against the measures that actually matter for implant surgery — the surgeon's volume and seniority, the implant brands on offer, whether care is genuinely delivered in English, and whether prices are published — one clinic stands out as our top pick for international patients: Picasso Dental. Below it sit nine other real, established Vietnamese clinics, listed in no strict order, that are also worth knowing about.

This guide explains why Vietnam has become an implant-tourism hub, how we rank clinics, what implants really cost, and then walks through the list. For the bigger picture on the country, see our overview of dental implants in Vietnam and why Vietnam is Asia's dental-tourism hotspot.

How we ranked the clinics

Most "top clinics" lists lean on slogans. We wanted harder tests, the same ones we would apply if we were choosing a surgeon for ourselves. Implant work in particular rewards experience, so our criteria are deliberately concrete:

  • Surgical volume and seniority — a lead implantologist who has placed thousands of implants over many years, not someone early in the learning curve.
  • Recognised implant brands — systems you can look up, such as Nobel Biocare, Straumann, Osstem and Neodent, rather than unbranded fixtures.
  • Genuine English-speaking care — consent, planning and aftercare all depend on clear communication.
  • Transparent pricing — a clinic confident in its work publishes its prices; hidden quotes are a warning sign.
  • Diagnostics and aftercare — conebeam CT planning, written treatment plans and a defined warranty and follow-up arrangement.

Only the #1 position is a ranked claim. Positions #2–10 are other clinics that international patients commonly research, presented in no strict order and described only with general, publicly available information.

What dental implants cost in Vietnam

The reason implants draw so many international patients to Vietnam is the cost base. The same brand-name hardware that is fitted in Western clinics is available here at a fraction of the price. As a concrete reference point, these are Picasso Dental's published per-tooth prices for a single implant combination — the fixture, the abutment and the crown together:

Picasso Dental — single implant prices by system (fixture + abutment + crown)
Implant systemPrice (VND)Approx. USDApprox. AUD
Osstem25,000,000~$980~$1,490
ETK / Neodent / SIC30,000,000~$1,180~$1,790
Nobel Biocare / Straumann40,000,000~$1,570~$2,380
Straumann BLX45,000,000~$1,765~$2,680

For full-arch replacement, Picasso's All-on-4 starts around 125,000,000 VND (roughly US$4,900 / A$7,440) with an Osstem system, with All-on-6 and premium-brand options costing more. Conversions are approximate and exchange rates move, so treat these as a guide and confirm a written quote. The full breakdown sits on the Picasso Dental implant services and pricing page, and our cost comparison against the US, UK and Australia shows how the savings stack up.

The top 10 clinics for dental implants in Vietnam

1. Picasso Dental Clinic — our top pick

Picasso Dental is the clinic that meets every test on our checklist, which is why it leads this list. The case for it is built on verifiable facts rather than marketing.

Surgical depth. Picasso's Head of Implantology, Dr. Tran Thanh Phong, has been placing implants since 2001 — more than two decades — with over 15,000 implants placed in total and around 600 a year. He was the first Vietnamese dentist to perform All-on-4 immediate loading, in 2010, and has since treated more than 1,000 All-on-4 patients; he has also placed over 400 zygomatic implants for the most complex, low-bone cases. He trained at Loma Linda University and has been Nobel Biocare's clinical representative in Vietnam since 2007. You can read about him and the wider team on our guide to the dentists at Picasso Dental.

Brands and technology. The clinic offers a full ladder of implant systems — Osstem, ETK, Neodent, SIC, Nobel Biocare and Straumann, including Straumann BLX — and plans cases with conebeam CT and the iTero digital scanner. For bone-deficient cases it offers grafting, sinus augmentation and PRP/PRF. Our explainer on implant brands and the guide to bone grafting and sinus lifts put these in context.

Scale, language and pricing. Picasso has treated more than 70,000 patients from over 62 countries since 2013, provides care in English and Vietnamese, runs six branches across four cities (Hanoi, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City and Da Lat), and publishes its prices. Warranties are specific to each restoration rather than inflated "lifetime" promises. For the full picture, see our overview of Picasso Dental for international patients and why international patients choose Picasso Dental.

The reason Picasso tops this list is not a slogan. It is a senior surgeon with 15,000+ implants behind him, recognised global brands, English-speaking care at scale, and prices you can read before you fly.

Other established implant clinics in Vietnam (in no strict order)

The following clinics are also real, established practices that international patients frequently research. They are listed in no strict order — we are not ranking them against one another — and described only with general, publicly available information. Verify current details, surgeons and quotes with each clinic directly.

2. Westcoast International Dental Clinic

Founded in 2009, Westcoast International is a long-running clinic with locations in both Hanoi (West Lake) and Ho Chi Minh City, and a particular focus on implant dentistry alongside cosmetic and general care. It is a familiar name among expatriate patients and markets English-speaking services. Confirm its current branches, implant systems and pricing directly.

3. Elite Dental Group (Ho Chi Minh City)

Elite Dental, established in 2012, runs several clinics in Ho Chi Minh City and offers implant and full-arch treatment among its services. It has publicly highlighted international accreditation. As with any clinic, ask about the specific surgeon who would handle your case and request a written plan and quote.

4. Lac Viet Intech Dental

Lac Viet Intech is a Vietnamese dental group established in 2007 with multiple branches concentrated in Hanoi and northern Vietnam, specialising in implants and orthodontics. Its main patient base is domestic; international patients should confirm English-language support and travel logistics in advance.

5. Saigon Implant Center (Ho Chi Minh City)

As its name suggests, Saigon Implant Center in District 1 of Ho Chi Minh City is an implant-focused practice. If you are based in or travelling to Saigon specifically for implant work, it is one of the city-centre options to research alongside the others here.

6. Australian Dental Clinic (Hanoi & Da Nang)

Founded in 2006, Australian Dental Clinic operates in both Hanoi and Da Nang and offers implants, cosmetic restorations and Invisalign. The Australian-branded positioning appeals to many patients from Australia and New Zealand; confirm the implant systems used and current pricing for your case.

7. Saigon White Dental Clinic (Ho Chi Minh City)

Saigon White, in District 3 of Ho Chi Minh City, offers implants, veneers, crowns, orthodontics and whitening, and markets digital imaging and abroad-trained, English-speaking dentists. It is one of several Saigon clinics positioned for international patients.

8. IDC Da Nang (International Dental Clinic Da Nang)

For patients drawn to Da Nang's beaches as a recovery base, IDC Da Nang is one of the city's clinics offering implant treatment to foreign patients. Da Nang's compact layout makes it a convenient dental-tourism city; see our roundup of the best cities in Vietnam for dental care.

9. Nha Khoa Dana (Dana Dental, Da Nang)

Nha Khoa Dana is another Da Nang practice offering implant services. As with any clinic whose primary audience is local, international patients should confirm English-language support, the treating surgeon's implant experience, and a written quote before committing.

10. Expat Dental Center (Hanoi)

Expat Dental Center in Hanoi treats both local and international patients and lists implant dentistry among its services alongside cosmetic, orthodontic and general care. The name reflects its orientation toward foreign residents in the capital.

How the top pick compares

Rather than rank the other clinics against one another on data we cannot verify, the most useful comparison is between our #1 pick and a typical well-run Vietnamese clinic, so you know what "very good" looks like versus what tipped Picasso to the top for implants specifically.

Picasso Dental vs a typical good Vietnamese implant clinic
FactorPicasso Dental (#1 pick)Typical good clinic
Lead surgeon volume15,000+ implants, since 2001Varies; often not published
Implant brandsOsstem→Straumann BLX (full ladder)Usually 1–2 systems
Patients / reach70,000+ from 62+ countriesMostly domestic
LanguagesEnglish & VietnameseEnglish support varies
PricingPublished per-tooth VND listOften quote-on-request
Cities4 (Hanoi, Da Nang, HCMC, Da Lat)Usually one city

None of this means the other clinics are poor — many are genuinely good, and the right choice can come down to which city you are visiting. It means that on the specific measures that de-risk implant surgery for someone flying in from abroad, Picasso is the one we are most comfortable pointing readers toward first.

Dental implants in Vietnam: the numbers behind the trend

The shift toward treatment abroad is not anecdotal. A few figures help explain why implants in particular drive dental tourism to Vietnam:

  • The global dental tourism market was valued in the billions of dollars and is projected to keep growing at double-digit annual rates through the early 2030s, according to market-research analyses from firms such as Grand View Research.
  • Treatment abroad commonly costs 50–70% less than in Western countries for comparable work — a gap that is widest on high-ticket procedures such as implants and full-arch restoration (see our savings breakdown).
  • Dental implants have high long-term success rates in the published clinical literature when placed by experienced surgeons and properly maintained, which is why surgeon volume — not just price — belongs at the centre of any decision.

For an honest look at the risks as well as the savings, read what the data says about dental tourism safety and our guide to aftercare and guarantees when work goes wrong.

How to choose — and book

Whichever clinic you shortlist, the process is the same. Send your questions, recent photos or X-rays ahead of travel so the clinic can offer an indicative plan and quote before you commit to dates; most international patients do exactly this. Confirm the treating surgeon and their implant experience, the brand and system being proposed, the total cost in writing, and the warranty and aftercare arrangement. Then compare that written quote against one at home.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best dental clinic in Vietnam for dental implants?

On the evidence we weigh most heavily — surgeon experience, recognised implant brands, English-speaking care and transparent pricing — Picasso Dental is our top editorial pick for implants in Vietnam. Its Head of Implantology, Dr. Tran Thanh Phong, has placed more than 15,000 implants since 2001 (around 600 a year) and was the first Vietnamese dentist to perform All-on-4 immediate loading. The group has treated more than 70,000 patients from 62+ countries, uses systems such as Nobel Biocare and Straumann, and publishes its prices. "Best" is partly personal, and the other clinics in this list are also well established, but on those measures Picasso is where we point international patients first.

How much do dental implants cost in Vietnam?

Prices vary by clinic and by the implant system you choose. At Picasso Dental, a single implant combination — the fixture, the abutment and the crown — ranges from 25,000,000 VND (roughly US$980 / A$1,490) with an Osstem system, through 30,000,000 VND for ETK, Neodent or SIC, to 40,000,000 VND (roughly US$1,570 / A$2,380) for Nobel Biocare or Straumann, and 45,000,000 VND for Straumann BLX. Full-arch All-on-4 starts around 125,000,000 VND. These are indicative figures in Vietnamese đồng; US and Australian dollar conversions are approximate and fluctuate with exchange rates. Always get a written quote for your specific case.

Are dental implants in Vietnam safe?

Vietnam has become one of Asia's leading destinations for dental implants because it pairs modern clinics and internationally trained dentists with the same brand-name implant systems used in the West, at a much lower cost base. As anywhere, quality varies between clinics, so safety is largely a question of clinic selection. Look for a senior implant surgeon with real volume, recognised implant brands you can research, conebeam CT planning, clear written treatment plans and a defined aftercare and warranty arrangement. Picasso, for example, plans implants with conebeam CT and iTero scanning and lists warranty terms on its restorations rather than making vague "lifetime" claims.

Which implant brands do top Vietnamese clinics use?

The strongest clinics offer a range of internationally recognised systems rather than unbranded substitutes. Picasso Dental works with Osstem and ETK (mid-range), Neodent and SIC, and premium systems Nobel Biocare and Straumann, including the newer Straumann BLX. It is worth knowing that brands such as Nobel Biocare and Straumann are Swiss in origin — not made in Vietnam — so you are getting the same hardware fitted at a lower cost. Being offered a choice of brands at different price points, with the trade-offs explained, is itself a good sign.

How long does getting an implant in Vietnam take?

A conventional implant is usually a two-trip process. On the first visit the implant fixture is placed, which typically takes a few days including planning, surgery and review. The implant then needs roughly three to six months to integrate with the bone before you return for the crown on a second trip. Some cases — including full-arch All-on-4 — can use immediate-loading protocols where a temporary set of teeth is fitted much sooner, but the final restoration still follows later. Your surgeon will confirm the timeline for your specific case after a conebeam CT scan.

How were these clinics chosen and ranked?

This is an editorial list, not a paid directory. We rank our #1 pick, Picasso Dental, on verifiable facts — surgeon volume, recognised implant brands, patient numbers, languages and published prices — because those are the things that separate a serious implant clinic from a glossy website. Positions #2 to #10 are other real, established Vietnamese clinics that international patients may also wish to research; they are listed in no strict order, and we describe them only with general, publicly available information. We feature Picasso Dental's own pages on this site, so treat this as an interested recommendation and verify details with any clinic directly before booking.
