Ocean Dental Vietnam (Nha Khoa Dai Duong) is a distinctive dental clinic located at 200 Hoang Quoc Viet Street in Co Nhue 1 Ward, Bac Tu Liem, Hanoi. Founded and led by Master's degree holder and dental specialist Dr. Vo Thi Minh Hao, the clinic has carved out a unique identity in Hanoi's dental market as the pioneer and only clinic in Vietnam currently applying Japan's 8020 Tooth Preservation Program.
The 8020 Program is a Japanese public health initiative built on the goal of helping patients retain at least 20 of their natural teeth by the age of 80. This philosophy of active tooth preservation, preventive care, and conservative treatment underpins everything the clinic does, distinguishing it from practices that lean more heavily on aggressive or replacement-focused interventions. For patients who want to protect their natural dentition for as long as possible, Ocean Dental Vietnam's approach offers a compelling and evidence-based alternative.
Dr. Vo Thi Minh Hao's academic background and commitment to the 8020 methodology provide the clinical foundation for the practice. Her leadership ensures that the team consistently applies conservative, preservation-first thinking across all aspects of patient care, from routine hygiene through to complex restorative and implant work.
Ocean Dental Vietnam provides a comprehensive range of dental services including cosmetic orthodontics using braces and clear aligner systems, dental implants for patients with missing teeth, general dentistry covering examinations, fillings, and hygiene appointments, and the 8020 tooth preservation program delivered through structured preventive and restorative protocols. The clinic's open hours are Monday through Sunday from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM, providing broad scheduling flexibility for patients with varied availability.
Dental implants at Ocean Dental Vietnam are approached through the lens of the preservation philosophy. Where natural teeth can be saved, the team prioritizes conservative options. Where implant placement is indicated, procedures are carried out with precision and care to achieve long-lasting, natural-looking results. The clinic's implant services are supported by proper pre-surgical planning and post-operative follow-up to ensure success over the long term.
Orthodontic services cover both fixed and removable options. Cosmetic orthodontics is an area of focus, with clear aligner systems and aesthetic bracket options available for patients who want to straighten their teeth with minimal visual impact. The team's orthodontic approach aligns with the preservation philosophy, seeking to improve alignment in ways that also support long-term dental health and stability.
The clinic's unique positioning around the 8020 Program makes it particularly appealing to patients who are concerned about long-term oral health and want a dental provider that thinks beyond immediate procedure outcomes to plan for decades of dental wellness.
Hanoi's dental tourism scene continues to grow, and Ocean Dental Vietnam offers an unusual and principled point of difference for international patients who share the clinic's values around preservation and prevention. The city's competitive pricing, strong clinical infrastructure, and rich cultural attractions make Hanoi an increasingly popular choice for dental travel from Australia, Europe, and across Asia.
International patients interested in Ocean Dental Vietnam's approach are encouraged to reach out before traveling to arrange a consultation with Dr. Vo Thi Minh Hao's team, discuss the 8020 Program and other treatment options, and plan their appointment schedule to align with their visit to Hanoi.
