True Dental is a genuine, established HCMC specialist clinic founded in 2007 with six named, licensed dentists and transparent all-inclusive implant pricing covering Straumann through Korean brands. The clinic is primarily oriented toward Vietnamese domestic patients, with no English-language support or international patient infrastructure documented, making it a moderate-risk choice for dental tourists who do not speak Vietnamese.

We had to wait quite a long time, and the dentist wasn't very enthusiastic either.
Vy Nguyen via Google 1.0 out of 5
Extremely bad. I had an appointment at 4 PM and it was 5:10 PM and I still hadn't been treated. No one took care of me. The dentist's time is precious, but the patient's time is dragged out indefinitely. Utterly terrible.
