About Nobel Biocare, One of the Oldest Names in Dental Implants

Nobel Biocare's roots are in the work of Swedish researcher Per-Ingvar Brånemark, who described how bone bonds to titanium, a process he called osseointegration. His team treated its first dental implant patient in Gothenburg in 1965, and the company that became Nobel Biocare was set up to make and sell his implant system. It is now part of Envista Holdings and sells implants in many countries.

The Nobel Biocare Product Line-Up

Nobel Biocare makes several implant lines, including NobelActive, NobelReplace and NobelParallel, plus prosthetic parts and digital planning tools. Which line suits you depends on your bone and the position of the tooth. Picasso lists the brand, not the product line, so ask which line, size and connection will be used and get it in writing.

All-on-4 and Nobel Biocare, the Original Protocol

All-on-4 replaces a full arch of teeth with a fixed bridge on four implants, with the back implants angled to make use of the available bone. It was developed by Portuguese dentist Paulo Malo working with Nobel Biocare in the 1990s; many brands now offer full-arch systems.

At Picasso, All-on-4 with Nobel Biocare or Straumann is 220,000,000 VND per jaw. The permanent zirconia bridge is quoted and charged separately and its price is not published. Picasso says a provisional fixed bridge is fitted on surgery day or the next, and the final bridge around six months after surgery; the trips are 5 to 7 days, then 3 to 5 days.

NobelProcera, the Digital Prosthetic Workflow

NobelProcera is Nobel Biocare's system for designing and milling crowns, bridges and abutments. Picasso does not list it; the ceramics it lists are zirconia, Cercon HT / Ceramill Zolid, Emax, Lisi and Lava. Ask what your crown or bridge will be made of and where it is made.

Pricing: Nobel Biocare in Hanoi vs Australia, the US and the UK

Picasso's list for both Hanoi branches ("Updated July 2026", read 26 Oct 2026), converted at about US$1 = 25,830 VND. Indicative only; only a written quote for your case applies.

Single implant + zirconia crown on Nobel Biocare

40,000,000 VND complete (about US$1,550, A$2,200, NZ$2,720, £1,160). Consultation (200,000 VND) and CBCT scan (600,000 VND) are extra. SmileJet does not publish a home price for a single implant: compare with a written quote from your own dentist.

All-on-4 per arch on Nobel Biocare

220,000,000 VND per jaw (about US$8,520, A$12,120, NZ$14,950, £6,370), before the final bridge. 2025 Australian clinic price guides put All-on-4 at A$18,000 to A$35,000 per arch, and New Zealand guides at NZ$20,000 to NZ$35,000. Because Picasso's figure excludes the final bridge, the gap is not the saving on the finished treatment; ask for the bridge price in writing. For the US and UK, compare with a written quote from your own dentist.

Nobel Biocare vs Straumann, the Practical Comparison

Both are long-established brands with large bodies of published research and parts available in many countries. They differ in implant designs, connections and surfaces, and dentists tend to prefer the system they know well. At Picasso they cost the same: 40,000,000 VND for a complete implant, 220,000,000 VND for All-on-4 per jaw. Straumann BLX is 45,000,000 VND. Ask the dentist which they recommend for your case and why.

The Two Hanoi Clinics That List Nobel Biocare

SmileJet lists two dental clinics in Hanoi, both branches of Picasso Dental Clinic. Both are featured partners on SmileJet: a commercial listing relationship, not a clinical endorsement. Same price list at both.

1. Picasso Dental Clinic Hanoi, Old Quarter Branch

16 Phố Châu Long, Ba Đình ward. Open every day 8:30 to 18:00. The founding branch (2013); the clinic says every Picasso treatment is done here, including All-on-4. See the Old Quarter branch.

2. Picasso Dental Clinic Hanoi, Westlake Square Branch

LKC22 Hoàng Minh Thảo, Westlake Square, in what was Bắc Từ Liêm district. The clinic lists on-site CBCT, iTero scanning, digitally planned implant cases and the same Nobel Biocare and Straumann systems as the Old Quarter. See the Westlake Square branch.

Picasso says it takes a CBCT scan before every implant and uses digital surgical guides. It no longer publishes dentists' names, so ask who will place your implant.

Clinician Training: What to Ask

Nobel Biocare runs training courses for dentists, but SmileJet has no record of any Picasso dentist's courses. Ask how many cases of your type the treating dentist does with this system, and who will fit the crown or bridge.

Warranty, Genuine Implants & the Implant Record

Picasso says implant warranties are the manufacturer's and that it hands over the implant serial numbers. Ask for the product name, size and serial or lot numbers in writing, and keep them with your CBCT files.

Warranty summary

• Implant: manufacturer's warranty; ask what it covers and what records you need to claim.
• Crown: by material on Picasso's list, for example 5 years on zirconia, 7 years on Emax, 10 years on Lava.
• SmileJet offers no warranty or guarantee of its own.

Real-World Results: What Affects How Long an Implant Lasts

Implants from established brands have long track records in published studies, but your own result depends more on you and the plan than on the logo: enough healthy bone, controlled gum disease, not smoking, well-managed diabetes, careful placement and regular cleaning. Ask the dentist about your specific risks.

When to Choose Nobel Biocare Over Other Brands in Hanoi

Choose the system your dentist knows well and can support. Nobel Biocare is a reasonable choice if you want a widely recognised brand that dentists at home can identify and service. If budget matters more, Picasso's Neodent implant is 30,000,000 VND complete (about US$1,160).

Nobel Biocare in the broader Hanoi dental-tourism picture

Picasso lists three implant brands: Nobel Biocare and Straumann at the same price, and Neodent for less. See Straumann implants in Hanoi and dental implant cost in Hanoi.
