Having access to quality low cost dental procedures is a wonderful privilege if you live in Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam, Thailand, or Malaysia. In this episode of the podcast I discuss average cost of procedures, and realistically what kind of work you could take care of while you are traveling casually through a place like Vietnam. I neglected to mention in the podcast the cost of dental implants in Vietnam for those that will be visiting for a longer period of time or who live in the region. Dental implants in Vietnam start at approximately $600USD per implant procedure not including the crown. This is some cases is 25% the cost for the same procedure in Western countries. This is a much more involved procedure that would require you to either be in the country for at least 6 months or be available to return 6 months after the initial implant placement. For basic work like cleaning, fillings, whitening, and even root canals, these could be potentially done while visiting the country short-term. International branded clinics will be more expensive but will also have services that will make Westerners feel more comfortable. Fluent English speaking staff, rooms that are more styled like Western clinics, but you will pay more for this. It's actually very easy to find clinics no matter where you are traveling in Southeast Asia by either using Google maps, Trip Advisor, or even Facebook. If you use enough of these platforms when doing your research you should be able to find a clinic you're comfortable using.Unless you already have a refferral from someone I suggest you take my advice and book an initial consultative appointment so you can meet the dentist and decide if she/he is the right fit and you feel comfortable in their clinic. Potentially if you have some of your dental work done while traveling through Southeast Asia the savings could amount to the value of your flight or more!
