One of the first Asian nations to provide dental tourism is Thailand, while Vietnam is quickly catching up. According to some, Thailand is the best country in the world for dental care. Because of this, even if the quality of dental tourism is the same between Thailand and Vietnam, the cost of dental care will always be substantially greater in Thailand.
With the best dental professionals in Vietnam, BeDental brings devotion and dedication to every customer as if we were family. BeDental is a reputable and professional dental system with various branches in city centers, which helps customers travel easily. In addition, BeDental has the latest imported dental equipment, which is certified for safety by the Ministry of Health. 5-star facilities provide customers with a relaxing atmosphere while experiencing high-class dental services.
In order to better appreciate the differences in dental treatments in these two nations, this blog will analyze the cost of the most popular dental tourism in Vietnam and Thailand.

2. Which factors cause the price gap in dental tourism?
In actuality, costs are adjustable and depend on a variety of aspects of a dental practice, including geography, facilities, employees, the level of services, brand recognition, technology, and so on. As our facilities and technology have advanced over the past 10 years of growth and development, BeDental has updated our price list. We make sure that our charges are reasonable and adaptable to diverse financial situations.
As the Vietnamese economy explodes at one of the fastest rates in the world, it only makes sense that the medical and tourist industries are following in like manner. Unlike the flush or bust medical history of Thailand and the costly treatments found in Singapore and Hong Kong, Vietnam offers services that are much more affordable whilst maintaining international quality.
As Vietnam ripens, its unique economic position garners prices that remain much lower than their SE Asian counterparts, giving it the ability to deliver world class dentistry with a much more favourable price tag.
As one of the most well-known dental practices in Hanoi, BeDental is dedicated to providing top-notch, affordable dental care. For more than 10 years, a significant number of foreigners have received care at our facilities, which adhere to worldwide standards. As a result, foreign nationals may have faith in our image and personnel.
When considering where to go for a dental holiday we can’t forget about the best part… the holiday. In regards to tourism, Vietnam caters a unique experience unparalleled by any other dental holiday hotspot.
Vietnam has increasingly become one of the top holiday destinations over the past 10 years as it’s host to the famous UNESCO World Heritage Site – Halong Bay, Han Son Doong – the world’s largest cave, endless pristine beaches, lush jungles and a rich, unspoiled culture of its own.
When comparing prices in some of the most popular dental tourist hotspots in Asia, the benefits of having your procedure in Vietnam go well beyond the lines of medical savings. Buzzfeed.com has listed Vietnam as one of the three cheapest countries for travel in the world, and you will find that its dental tourism price sits very well compared to its regional competitors like Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong.
After opening its gates to the tourist industry in the early-mid 1990s, Vietnam quickly emerged as one of the most undiscovered countries in SE Asia. Since then, Vietnam has hospitably welcomed visitors from all over the world with open arms.
In a place with such a wonderful and inviting culture, both travellers and medical tourists are treated as equals. It is not uncommon to be invited in a perfect stranger’s home and treated like family, and it is with this kind of spirit that we treat our patients as well.
Currently, Vietnam is experiencing massive growth in dental tourism thanks to extremely low costs, modern facilities, internationally certified dentists and its buzzing holiday destination scene.

4. Downsides of Dental Tourism
While dental care costs less in dental tourism destinations, that doesn’t mean traveling for care is best for you. There are potential downsides – and even dangers – associated with traveling for dental procedures.
Dental Standards: Standards for foreign dental practices might not be the same as those in the U.S. For example, infection control standards can vary widely. The Organization for Safety, Asepsis and Prevention (OSAP) provides valuable information and checklists to consult before you travel.
Language Barriers: If dental professionals in other countries speak little or no English and you don’t speak the country’s language, misunderstandings can occur that might be problematic. Check on the languages spoken at your dental tourism office.
Care Continuity: If you receive dental care in another country, the foreign dentist might not know your dental history. When you return, your own dentist might not know what treatment you received or why it was performed.
It’s best to forward your dental records to your foreign dental office. And for a proper follow-up, forward your foreign records to your own dentist.
Issues Within Specific Countries: Check out Centers for Disease Control (CDC) information on vaccines needed, safe travel tips, and health notices for dental tourism countries. And visit the U.S. Department of State site for travel advisories and U.S. contacts once you’ve arrived.
