Dr Hung and Associates (Worldwide Dental) is one of Ho Chi Minh City's most established dental hospitals, operating since 1994 with Ministry of Health hospital status, a verifiable PhD-qualified founder, and strong external validation via 403 verified WhatClinic reviews. However, documented cases of post-operative nerve damage, multiple crown failures, and a recurring hard-sell pattern toward foreign patients introduce meaningful quality and trust concerns that tourists should weigh carefully.

What an amazing clinic to get your dental work done. We had implants, bridges, Veniers, and crowns done. It's super professional, but Dep and everybody makes you feel like Familie. We could not be happier about our new teeth. Everybody back home is mentioning our smiles, and we gained a lot of confidence. Thanks again ❤️

I came to have my wisdom teeth extracted, the doctor worked very professionally with full procedures and strict process. Extracted 2 wisdom teeth in only 15-20 minutes. After extraction, it was not too painful and healed quickly, no swelling. Very wonderful.

Worldwide Dentist. Dr Hung and Associates. I started the process of searching for a dentist after visiting Vietnam for an extended period of time. The team at worldwide were fantastic and helpful. Answering all my questions, they made me feel very comfortable. It was at this point in Sept 2019, I rebooked and came back to HCMC for another extended visit. Day 1, I was extremely nervous and the team…

am were fabulous and I settled in. After much work and examination, I got an all on 6 on my upper teeth. This was to be followed up after 6 months for the final fitting of my permanent teeth. Then of course in March of 2020 when I was booked to come back Covid hit. And my follow up appointment had to be put off. As soon as I was able, I returned to Vietnam in 2023 the team at worldwide dentists were again fantastic. Mr Dentist Nguyen Thanh Vu was so great, gentle and explained everything. I have now finalised my final upper teeth and they look fantastic. I highly recommend anyone who needs dental work done to give the wonderful team at Worldwide Dental (Dr Hung and Associates dental centre) a call.

I had a root canal treatment in this practice, after less than 6months the root canal failed. On reciept of my review, the practice refunded my money.

I only went there to get two teeth straightened because they were misaligned. The total cost so far is around 40 million VND, which is expensive compared to other places, everyone agrees. But the doctor straightened one tooth that wasn't even straight yet and immediately suggested removing it and asked me to sign a consent form. I couldn't see clearly when the braces were still on, but with…

their high level of expertise, the doctor should have known it wasn't straight. As soon as they removed it, I pointed out it was still crooked. The doctor scheduled a follow-up appointment, and after 3 months, they said the solution was another 7 million VND to straighten it again. OMG! This center is good for people who need a clean and not-too-crowded place to use dental service. It is expensive, but in my opinion, my doctor is too busy to listen and understand my needs. She just works and works without talking to know if I am satisfied. I hesitate to ask her something because she seems so busy all the time. So, of course, the result was not worth the money I paid.

I am a patient at an orthodontic clinic. At first, I was very worried, but the teachers are always very kind and they take care of any problems right away. I am so grateful. It is a very comfortable dental clinic to visit!

I got braces here. The price for the whole set of braces is much more expensive than other places. My case is ~48 million. However, what made me decide to get braces here is the staff, service and facilities are very attentive from the beginning to the end. There is no way to pay and then treat customers badly. In addition, during the city lockdown due to the Covid-19 epidemic, the dental clinic…

did not close, on the contrary, it provided full documents for customers to go to the dental clinic. In general, anyone who is worried about the service can rest assured. As for the price, each person has their own feelings.

I traveled from Dong Nai to Worldwide Hospital for dental implant surgery because my daughter, who is undergoing Invisalign treatment there, recommended it. It was definitely worth the long journey. Dr. Tuan performed the implant procedure painlessly, and I was able to return to work normally afterward. Now I have teeth that function like natural teeth. I am very satisfied and will recommend…

After researching many places, I chose RHM Worldwide cosmetic surgery hospital to have my jaw correction surgery. I am very satisfied with the results. Thank you to Dr. Hung and the surgical team, and thank you to the nurses for their attentive care throughout my treatment at the hospital. A 5-star hospital.

The treatment was painful - the anesthetics did not work. Inconsistent information regarding diagnosis, recovery details and procedures (thus hidden costs) etc.

The dentist did a great job on the dental work.

This was our (my wife and I) first experience with dental tourism. Of course we were a little nervous as we went from simpler things like crowns and extractions to more complicated things like implants, sinus lifts and major bridge restoration. Going into this we had questions about costs and questions about the training of dentists and doctors who were going to be doing the work. Every cost was…

spelled out up front and time was scheduled with various specialist to answer all our questions. The work performed was painless during and after the various procedures were performed. The facilities throughout were top notch. We are definitely coming back to have more work completed during our next visit to Vietnam. I'm recommending this as an option to all my friends and relatives who are tired of paying for this work to be done in the USA. My wife and I are back home in the USA and remain completely satisfied with the dental work we received at Dr. Hung's Worldwide Dental Clinic in Ho Chi Minh City.
