Replace an entire row of teeth without breaking the bank with the All-on-4® treatment concept in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Transform your smile with our quality-checked specialists in this Nobel Biocare®-provided treatment while getting to know this fascinating country.

Ho Chi Minh City (HCM) is the largest city in Vietnam and has a tropical climate perfect for tourists looking for a break from cold weather. Saigon, as it is commonly known, attracts many tourists from around the globe who enjoy sightseeing, shopping, dining out, and exploring various activities.

Attractions in HCM present a combination of old and new: colonial structures, modern skyscrapers and shopping malls.

Visit famous museums like Reunification Palace, War Remnants Museum, Museum of Vietnamese History, and the Ho Chi Minh Museum. There’s certainly plenty to see and do in between your visits to the dentist.

This full-arch rehabilitation method uses four dental implants (per jaw) to hold a complete arch of crowns, held by a fixed bridge. The implants act as artificial tooth roots and are surgically placed into the jawbone following the extraction of any remaining teeth. 

While careful planning is required prior to the treatment day, the actual procedure is completed in just one day. This means that teeth extractions, implant placement and replacement teeth attachment are carried out all in the same session.

Due to the unique length and position of the implants, this is often still a viable teeth replacement option for patients who have suffered bone loss in the jaw. 

What Are the Benefits of the All-on-4® treatment concept?

Benefits of the All-on-4® treatment concept include:

• Eliminates the need for additional procedures, like bone graft surgery.
• Improves your facial features.
• Helps you eat, talk and smile confidently.
• Promotes good oral health.

What Does the All-on-4® Treatment Concept Involve?

Treatment involves consultation and treatment planning, insertion of implants and attachment of permanent replacement teeth.

The first step includes a complete examination of your teeth and gums. Your dentist will recommend you to take diagnostic tests, like cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Once it is confirmed that this is the best option for you, the dental implants will be inserted into your jawbone. Then, temporary replacement teeth will be attached.

After the healing period of around six months, where the implants fuse with the bone (osseointegration), the temporary teeth will be removed and replaced with permanent ones.

Prices for the All-on-4® treatment concept start at around AUD $10,800 (NZD $11,600; USD $8,200; CAD $10,800; UK £6,700; EUROS 7,416).

This is compared to AUD $34,000 (NZD $36,000; USD $25,600; CAD $34,000; UK £21,000; EUROS 23,000) in Australia.

The cost is one of the most important reasons why people are going to Ho Chi Minh City, but that isn’t the only reason - the services have to be good too.
