Hanoi veneers for New Zealanders – the numbers

A 10-tooth E.max smile makeover in New Zealand costs NZ$20,000–28,000 at a cosmetic dental practice. The same procedure at a SmileJet-listed Hanoi clinic costs from NZ$4,800 – a difference of NZ$15,200 to NZ$23,200. After deducting NZ$1,100–1,600 for return flights and NZ$800–1,400 for 7 nights accommodation, New Zealand patients net NZ$13,000–21,000 in savings on a single trip.

Those fabrication days – Days 3 through 5 – are where Hanoi makes the veneer trip uniquely rewarding for New Zealanders. Most patients board a 2-night Halong Bay cruise during this window. Halong Bay is 3.5 hours from Hanoi by car and is consistently rated among the most memorable experiences in Southeast Asia. You are not waiting – you are travelling.

The material, Ivoclar Vivadent E.max lithium disilicate, is the same product used by cosmetic dentists in Auckland and Wellington. SmileJet audits the lab standards and bonding protocols at all partner clinics.

Auckland and Wellington to Hanoi

New Zealand connects to Hanoi via Singapore on every routing. The journey is long but comfortable on Singapore Airlines, with the 7-day Hanoi trip structured so the travel days are either side of treatment.

Auckland (AKL)
~17h via SIN
1 stop
NZ$1,100–1,600 return

Visa: New Zealand passport holders receive 45-day bilateral visa-free entry to Vietnam – no e-visa or application required. Present your NZ passport at HAN immigration on arrival.

Halong Bay during the fabrication days

While your ceramist fabricates your E.max veneers in Hanoi, you have two to three free days. For most New Zealand patients, those days mean Halong Bay – and it is the trip highlight they talk about longest.

How to get there
Tuan Chau Harbour is approximately 3.5 hours from the Hanoi Old Quarter by car or cruise-company transfer. Most cruise operators offer a minibus pick-up from Hanoi hotels on Day 4 morning after your Day 3 post-placement check.
What to expect
Limestone karst islands rising from jade-green water, anchored in designated bays each evening. Most 2-night cruises include kayaking, cave exploration, cooking class, and tai chi at sunrise. All meals onboard – Vietnamese food that leans toward steamed, soft dishes, ideal for post-temporary diet restrictions.
Cruise categories
Budget: NZ$180–280 per person (2 nights). Mid-range: NZ$320–500. Luxury: NZ$600–900+. SmileJet patients typically choose mid-range for the combination of comfort and value. Book through your hotel or a Hanoi-based operator – same quality as global booking platforms at lower cost.
Alternative – Ninh Binh day trip
If you prefer to stay near Hanoi, Ninh Binh (2 hours by car) offers comparable karst scenery accessible in a single day. Trang An boat caves, Mua Cave viewpoint, and Bai Dinh pagoda are all within a half-day circuit – no overnight stay required.
