Important โ€” about this score

Please read before drawing conclusions about this clinic.

This score is an automated, opinion-based assessment generated by SmileJet's proprietary AI algorithm from publicly available information โ€” including aggregated third-party reviews, clinic-published materials, and other open-source signals. It is not a statement of verified fact, a professional medical opinion, or an endorsement, and individual experiences may differ.

How the algorithm penalises scores

Our methodology applies score reductions where signals are detected that, in the algorithm's assessment, may indicate: unverifiable or potentially overstated claims about clinical experience or credentials; review patterns the model flags as inconsistent with organic user behaviour; or limited independent corroboration of marketing statements.

These adjustments reflect algorithmic signal-weighting only and do not constitute an allegation of any specific wrongdoing by this clinic or its staff.

Marina Dental is a licensed cosmetic and surgical dental clinic in Vung Tau Ward, Vung Tau City, Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province, Vietnam โ€” licensed by the Ba Ria-Vung Tau Department of Health. Led by orthodontics and implant specialist Bs. Doan Manh Cuong, with patients traveling from Ho Chi Minh City for treatment. Services include implants, braces, porcelain crowns, and veneers. Open Monday to Sunday except Wednesday, 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM

Marina Dental is a licensed cosmetic and surgical dental clinic in Vung Tau Ward, Vung Tau City, Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province, Vietnam, established in 2022 and licensed by the Ba Ria-Vung Tau Department of Health (License No. 1538/BRVT-GPHฤ, issued 5 September 2022). Specializing in orthodontics, dental implants, and porcelain cosmetic restorations, the clinic is led by a specialist orthodontist and implant expert and staffed by two additional oral and maxillofacial specialist dentists. Open Monday to Sunday 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, closed Wednesday.

Why Choose Marina Dental

Marina Dental's most distinctive validation signal is patient behavior: multiple reviews document patients traveling specifically from Ho Chi Minh City — including from District 10 — on a monthly basis for orthodontic follow-up appointments with Dr. Doan Manh Cuong. Patients who travel 90+ kilometers each visit for ongoing treatment do so because they trust the clinical outcomes, not out of convenience — making this one of the strongest forms of patient loyalty documented in the Vung Tau dental market. The clinic's Department of Health license, modern full-equipment facility (described by patients as on par with Ho Chi Minh City standards), and a team of two oral and maxillofacial specialists alongside the lead orthodontist-implantologist give Marina Dental a clinical depth uncommon among Vung Tau's independent dental providers. The welcoming, modern environment — praised consistently across reviews for cleanliness, seasonal decor, and a friendly staff — creates a patient experience that multiple reviewers describe as suitable for whole-family use, with patients regularly referring friends and family members.

Treatments and Services

Dental implants — single and full-arch implant replacement, led by Dr. Doan Manh Cuong (orthodontics and implant specialist). Full-arch implants — complete upper or lower arch rehabilitation. Bracket braces — comprehensive orthodontic alignment correction. Clear aligner orthodontics — removable transparent aligner treatment. Porcelain crowns — aesthetic and restorative ceramic restorations. Porcelain veneers — ultra-thin cosmetic facings for smile enhancement. Wisdom tooth extraction — documented as pain-free and professional in patient reviews. Root canal treatment — preserving infected or inflamed teeth. Scaling and polishing — preventive cleaning and tartar removal. Dental fillings — restorative treatment for cavities and minor damage.

Team and Credentials

Dr. Doan Manh Cuong — specialist in orthodontics and implantology, the clinic's lead clinician and the named reason patients travel from Ho Chi Minh City for treatment. Dr. Le Tan Nam — oral and maxillofacial specialist. Dr. Phan Dang Thanh Hien — oral and maxillofacial specialist. All three doctors hold specialist qualifications in their respective fields.

Location and Access

Marina Dental is located in Vung Tau Ward, Vung Tau City, Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province, Vietnam — on Truong Cong Dinh street in central Vung Tau, accessible from across the city and the surrounding Ba Ria-Vung Tau province.

I went to this clinic for a professional cleaning. I was amazed at how thorough they were, paying attention to every tooth. The staff here is truly enthusiastic. The results were amazing. I'd previously gone to two popular clinics in Da Nang, and the quality of the cleaning couldn't be compared. Suitable for those who speak Russian. The doctor speaks excellent Russian, and you'll receive a first-class consultation in Russian. The reception staff also has cards with inscriptions for your convenience.

I went to this clinic on the recommendation of a friend because I broke a tooth. I showed up without an appointment, and the receptionists greeted me warmly with Russian-language cards. Five minutes later, I was already getting a 3D x-ray, even though there were a lot of patients. After the x-ray, I had a consultation with the head doctor, Doan Manh Cuong, in excellent Russian. They determined a treatment plan and did a cleaning. I had to part with the tooth, and a crown was chosen. In two visits, I got the cleaning, crown, and filling. The clinic is modern, has good equipment, a pleasant atmosphere, and a professional team. I am very pleased with the result and that everything worked out despite the holiday rush before Tet. I wish you prosperity and grateful clients!

Everything was very organized from the very first step: at reception, they asked about the language, gave me a questionnaire in that language, took before/after photos, a free 3D scan, and referred me to the doctor. The head doctor spoke Russianโ€”they thoroughly reviewed my scans and created a plan. Next, I had a professional cleaningโ€”the most thorough I've ever had. You can choose the number of steps, but I chose the medium option. Each tooth was treated step by step, polished, and then applied a protective gel. The price was $27, which was completely worth it. The clinic is well-equipped, they're generous with consumables, and each doctor has their own assistant. I'd especially like to mention the removal of two wisdom teeth. I was very scared, but the doctor explained everything calmly, responded sensitively to my stress, covered me with a blanket, and gave me time to compose myself. There was no pain during the procedure, and the staff was very supportive. Afterwards, there's an observation, a follow-up 3D scan, and a full recovery kit: detailed instructions in Russian, medications, tampons, ice, chlorhexidine, and even teeth in boxes. Plus, several days of free UV treatment with healing monitoring. Removal of two wisdom teeth: $109. The level of service and care is simply amazing. Highly recommended.
