Australians need a Vietnam e-visa (US$25 single-entry, valid up to 90 days) applied online via evisa.gov.vn and issued within 3–5 business days. Thailand offers visa-free entry for up to 60 days. Indonesia provides visa on arrival for 30 days. No medical or dental-specific visa is required anywhere.
Standard Australian travel insurance does not cover elective dental treatment abroad. We recommend purchasing a policy that covers medical complications and emergency dental care. Providers like Cover-More and Allianz offer add-on medical cover. Your SmileJet clinic's warranty covers treatment-related issues separately.
Clinics accept AUD bank transfers, Visa, Mastercard, and cash (USD or local currency). SmileJet quotes are provided in AUD. ATMs are widely available in all dental tourism cities. Exchange rates are favourable for Australians across all SmileJet destinations.
All SmileJet partner clinics have English-speaking dentists and patient coordinators. Treatment plans, consent forms, and post-care instructions are provided in English. WhatsApp and email communication before, during, and after your trip.
Vietnam and Thailand are best visited October to April (dry season). Bali is pleasant year-round with slightly less rain May to September. Avoid Tet (Vietnamese New Year, late January/early February) as clinics may have reduced hours.

Everything you need to know before booking dental treatment abroad.
The average Australian spends roughly AUD $2,800 per year on dental care, and an estimated 30% of Australians delay or avoid treatment because of cost. Private health insurance rarely closes the gap — annual limits of AUD $1,500–$2,500 are typical, which barely covers a single crown, let alone the implants, bridges, or full-mouth work that older patients increasingly need. This gap is the single largest driver behind Australians travelling abroad for dental care.
Vietnam alone welcomes more than 79,000 international dental tourists annually, with Australians representing one of the fastest-growing patient groups year over year. The typical Australian dental tourist is 45–70 years old, has been quoted AUD $15,000 or more for treatment at home, and is comfortable with international travel. Many combine treatment with a holiday, which means the overall trip — even including flights and hotels — remains dramatically cheaper than treatment alone in Australia.
SmileJet presents every quote in AUD, operates patient support during Australian business hours via WhatsApp, and vets partner clinics against 47 safety criteria set by the Medical Board of Excellence. Post-treatment, we coordinate with your Australian dentist where needed and back every clinic with the SmileJet Global Warranty. The goal is to remove the logistical and clinical uncertainty that stops Australians from considering dental tourism in the first place.
Vietnam offers the lowest prices and an unusually deep bench of English-speaking clinics in Ho Chi Minh City. Thailand's dental tourism infrastructure is the most mature in Asia and is the best pick for complex surgical work. Bali has the shortest flight from Australia and pairs naturally with a familiar holiday — it's ideal for shorter treatments like veneers or single implants. Most Australians choose based on flight time, the scale of treatment, and whether they want to combine dental work with a holiday.
Look for ISO 9001 or JCI accreditation, dentists with international training credentials (many SmileJet partners trained in the US, UK, Australia, or Germany), verifiable material sourcing (Straumann, Nobel Biocare, IPS E.max), and strong English-language communication. Patient photos, Google reviews with recent dates, and a written warranty you can take home are non-negotiable. Every SmileJet partner clinic meets all of these thresholds.
Most Australians start planning 8–12 weeks out. Send your X-rays to SmileJet, receive 2–3 matched clinic options within 48 hours, confirm your preferred clinic, book flights and accommodation, and arrive a day before treatment begins. Bring your full dental history, a list of any medications, and a copy of your travel insurance policy. On return, share your clinic's treatment file with your Australian dentist so continuity of care is preserved.
