This goes back to 2007 when I was working and living in VN. I met couple of Australians working at the Australian Consulate in HCMC and they told me they would get dental, optometry and family practice doctor treatment in VN. They said the quality of work, attitude are really good and ridiculous cheap compared to Australia. We're talking about root canal, eye surgery like lasik, even surgeries, I was surprised as I had thought European, Canadian and Australian health care was really cheap but the Aussies told me VN was a great value. They said they don't have to wait too long for appointment either. I'm from the US so everyone already knows US health care is ridiculous, way way too costly for what we get. In recent years, I've seen news articles and videos about Singaporean hospitals fly Vietnamese doctors over to hospitals in Singapore for surgeries but charge Singaporean price. I've also seen news articles on how Vietnamese hospitals train European and Western surgeons on particular surgical procedure involving catheters !!! The thing is that we're obsessed with the outside appearance of the facilities and we fail to understand it's skills and knowledge that are keys to health care so we pooh pooh Vietnam's health care.
Great video. Root canals are from $1500 to $3250 in San Francisco area. Implants 10k. Braces $7-10k. Invisalign is so expensive there not because of the dentist but because of the company Invisalign. They have trademark on liners. Fillings are $300-700. Routine cleanings are $250-450. Thanks for the info on that clinic. I’ll use them when I’m there
I did crowns in Saigon in 2023 on all my teeth. Total of 32 crowns. Cost me 155 million dong. Very good service and all done in 9 days. Highly recommend to go there for all your dental needs
Please tell me more about why you chose that option. Is it a good long term and permanent solution? I have crowding on my lower teeth and was thinking invisalign but if I can just do a few crowns and get it fixed in one day for cheaper I'm interested. Anything you can tell me more I would appreciate!
@@lawdog369, I hope that you had my reply. Most of the time the reply will be deleted by the video guy. It is because the dentist will give him a cut.
I just got normal braces taken off about a year ago, it was 2.5 years around 8000-9000$ when I was done with my permanent retainer, also have to wear retairners for the rest of my life. Invisaline was a little more expensive but would have taken longer. I just got back from Vietnam, I decided to check out the dentist and went for a cleaning in Nha Trang, it was 200k also 4 bucks, and everything was really clean and professionally. Really happy! I ended up getting new glasses while I was there too, wanted to check everything out. I got sick, ear infection, went to the international hospital also, was 20 bucks haha! That was the expensive hospital. So clean, staff so nice. Really missing Vietnam now.
G’day Travis & Loan, I have been waiting for this video for ages. When Kellie and I visited Da Nang in 2019, Kellie got 4 x verniers & she looked amazing afterwards. Being from Australia she got quotes $ 15,000 to do it in Australia, in Da Nang $ 1,500 . I got a clean & filling $25 Aussie. Now I need a wisdom tooth removed you didn’t mention wisdom tooth. My dentist quoted me about $ 4,000 Aussie to remove it, in 2019 I was quoted $ 50 Aussie. Coming in October 2025 for 5 week break & some wisdom teeth removal. All my buddies think I am lying to them when I tell them & how in hygienic Vietnam must be. Stuff them see you in 12 months time beers on me. Cheers Louis & Kellie 👍
Awesome prices. I was talking with a dental hygienist on one of my visits. She did not understand why implants are so expensive in the U.S. She said the procedure is so standardized, it should be less expensive. Great that your girlfriend got quality dental work done. I believe Invisalign is expensive due to being a brand name of clear teeth aligners.
That's very affordable considering it is western tourist price. If you went to a shop that caters to locals that speaks only Vietnamese it's even cheaper.
Here in New York City different types of braces cost different amounts . The lowest prices are the ones that they put a lot of metal on your tooth 🦷, then they have ones with less metal , then more like a clear plastic than metal , then they might also have behind the teeth so nobody can see them . Some work better than others for different needs and some people need to wear them longer . So this effects the prices. Could be $4,000 to $10,000
When I was living in Australia, a coworker of mine flew up to Vietnam for some major dental work. He had really bad teeth and was missing some. He came back a couple of weeks later with a great looking smile and great teeth. He said it cost him about $4,000 Australian dollars, but would've costed him about $12,000 in Australia.
Yes I see a lot of Philippine women wearing braces in the Philippines and in Hong Kong and I know that they don’t have much money so they can’t cost that much , not like the cost here in New York City 🏙️.
WOW! Yet another reason ! I live in the miami area... i had a root canelle done about five years ago. Even with insurance, i still beat about $750. Plus the cost of the visits, what's the cost of the cleanings ... Without insurance, it would probably cost the same as flying to vietnam to get it done.
Just a heads up, that root canal on #30 is done wrong. Both roots are still infected and needs retreatment. Her current root canal looks short as well. Just a dentist looking at the x-ray.
Thanks Travis, really appreciate your videos which will save me time finding my way around when in Da Nang. Would you know where I might find someone in Da Nang who can be a tour guide for a day?
The price for a canal is good, I just wonder how safe it is compared to a western country (i.e UK) and if its as long lasting for thing like fillings or if they're cheaper but less quality (not a long lasting or as good quality filling) but I'm in Vietnam soon so I'd definitely be up for a check up and some work! Just to get my teeth cleaned here in UK is £60, so I guess around $80usd?
About dental implants in the U.S. From my reading the dentist performing the implant can be a general practitioner and does not have to be an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon. The general practitioner takes a 1-3 day course on implant procedure. While and oral surgeon must take an additional 4-years of medical training. I don't know what the requirements are for dentists in Vietnam.

Root canal and crown in Oz $$1,700 usd
Makes you wonder why it is so different in the US. Free x-rays and consultations! $8 for cleaning, crazy cheap
Thanks Travis. Planning on a dentist visit on upcoming trip in Nov.
The last crown I had here in Vancouver was $1100 CAD. Root canal was $800 CAD

Would you know where I might find someone in Da Nang who can be a tour guide for a day?
To compare in sweden. I got a offer from the dentist to do my braces. about $7000...
Do glasses and optometry next please
Root canal and a crown here in Missouri...with insurance, my out of pocket was still nearly $2,400.
Geez, I was actually thinking $80 sounded expensive for a root canal
Đủ tiền b qua VN du lịch và nhổ răng luôn
Great timing. I just broke a tooth!
Dear Travis,
Next time go to Hue dentist in Hue is cheaper than Da nang
800-1200 here in utah (without insurance)
That’s Cheaper than Thailand, but I go to Thailand regularly so it’s convenient and much cheaper than California
The price for a canal is good, I just wonder how safe it is compared to a western country (i.e UK) and if its as long lasting for thing like fillings or if they're cheaper but less quality (not a long lasting or as good quality filling) but I'm in Vietnam soon so I'd definitely be up for a check up and some work!
Just to get my teeth cleaned here in UK is £60, so I guess around $80usd?
Everything appears to be professional and good quality
Dentist in London charged me 500 quid only under 50 minutes
was 10 years ago
since then l never go to dentist again in London
Can’t afford it
What does Loan do for work?
She teaches Vietnamese and sells homecooked food
@@TravisTravelsVN Would Loan ever offer virtual cooking classes?!? I'd sign up!
i paid $2,000 recently in jacksonville, florida.
Hey, we might be neighbors 😂😂
£80 for teeth clean in England
Travis, what about word "affordable" instead of "cheap"? :)
Do you recommend that place? I’m looking for places can do my teeth
Yep definitely. Australian Dental clinic they can do anything you need
Crazy good
Probably a dumb question but why do you go for cleaning visits so often?
You've mentioned every 2-3 months
6 months is standard but since it's cheap I go a little more often. Just cause I drink coffee several times a day and my teeth stain easily
I lived in Hue 28 years so l know

In VietNam, they need 6 years of medical training.
No worries, dentists in Vietnam are specialist. They study in a different major from general doctors.
