Vietnam's largest dental tourism city. More clinics, more specialists, more flexibility — and direct flights from Sydney in 8.5 hours. SmileJet projects 2,103 dental patients matched with HCMC clinics for our 2025 target cohort.
Why HCMC
Three reasons patients choose HCMC over Hanoi, Bangkok, or Phnom Penh
Vietnam's largest city means more clinics, more specialists, and more time slots — without the wait.
Maximum clinic choice
HCMC has the highest concentration of internationally-trained implantologists in Vietnam. More clinics means more competition on price, faster appointment availability, and a broader range of specialist credentials. If you have a complex case — full-arch reconstruction, significant bone loss, or multiple treatment types — HCMC has the specialist volume to match you precisely.
Year-round flexibility
Unlike Hanoi (cool and sometimes cold in winter) or Da Nang (rainy from October to January), Ho Chi Minh City runs tropical year-round. There is no bad season for dental tourism. Patients from cold climates often extend their stay and combine treatment with a beach weekend in Mui Ne or Phu Quoc — a 45-minute flight or 8-hour night bus.
Fast decision cycle
HCMC is the busiest dental tourism city in Vietnam — which means clinics respond fast. The average SmileJet quote-to-response time in HCMC is under 4 hours. Weekend and evening appointments are more available here than in any other Vietnamese city. If you want to book and go within two weeks, HCMC is the answer.
