HCMC implant prices vs home country
What determines your implant cost in HCMC
Implant brand
Osstem and Dentium (both South Korean, from US$880) represent the most cost-effective option with strong clinical outcomes. Straumann and Nobel Biocare (Swiss/US, from US$1,050) carry a modest premium for their longer RCT data history. Both systems are supported by the 94.6% pooled 5-year survival benchmark (Moraschini et al. 2015).
Crown material
A zirconia crown (from US$420 / A$643) is the premium option — metal-free, highly aesthetic, 15+ year longevity. A porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crown (from US$280 / A$428) is the budget alternative — adequate for posterior teeth but with a visible metal margin over time.
Bone grafting requirement
Not every implant patient needs a bone graft. Ridge augmentation (from US$360) and sinus lifts (from US$450) are add-ons determined from your CBCT scan. SmileJet identifies whether grafting is required before you commit to travel — these costs are itemised separately in your written quote.
Number of implants
Single implant costs are quoted per fixture. Multiple implants for the same arch — or a combination with All-on-4 — are typically packaged. Discuss the full scope with SmileJet to get an accurate total before travel.
Frequently asked questions — implant cost in HCMC
What is the total cost of an HCMC implant trip?
For a single implant (Trip 1 + Trip 2): add flights (A$700–1,400 return), accommodation for each trip (A$200/night), and living costs. The total outlay — including two trips — is typically A$5,000–7,000 all-in, versus A$5,500–7,000 for the implant alone at home. You effectively get both trips free.
Does the HCMC implant price include the crown?
No — implant fixture and crown are usually priced separately. The full single-tooth cost is the implant fixture (from US$880) plus an abutment (included or from US$80) plus a zirconia crown (from US$420). SmileJet quotes all three components together as a complete single-tooth restoration price.
Is there a payment schedule?
Yes. A deposit is typically paid before Trip 1 to confirm the booking. The balance is settled at the clinic. SmileJet provides a full payment schedule in writing. No payment is taken without a written treatment plan and quote.
What does the treatment coordination support cover for implants?
The SmileJet treatment coordination support, administered through the treating HCMC clinic, covers implant fixture failure (osseointegration failure) and crown defects within the 12 months following final restoration. It does not cover damage from trauma, non-compliance with post-operative instructions, or cosmetic changes unrelated to the treated tooth.

All-in HCMC implant trip cost: full two-trip budget
Single dental implants require two trips to HCMC: Trip 1 for implant placement, Trip 2 (3–6 months later) for the final crown fitting once osseointegration is confirmed. Here is the complete cost breakdown for both trips from Australia and the UK.
| Cost component | AUD (from Sydney) | NZD (from Auckland) | GBP (from London) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Implant fixture (Osstem) | A$1,347 | NZ$1,540 | £695 |
| Zirconia implant crown (Trip 2) | A$643 | NZ$735 | £332 |
| CBCT scan (Trip 1) | A$184 | NZ$210 | £95 |
| Trip 1 return flights | A$900 | NZ$1,050 | £650 |
| Trip 1 accommodation (5 nights) | A$500 | NZ$575 | £325 |
| Trip 2 return flights | A$900 | NZ$1,050 | £650 |
| Trip 2 accommodation (3 nights) | A$300 | NZ$345 | £195 |
| Meals and transport (both trips) | A$600 | NZ$690 | £390 |
| Total all-in (both trips) | A$5,374 | NZ$6,195 | £3,332 |
| Single implant at home (comparable) | ~A$5,500–7,000 | ~NZ$6,000–7,500 | ~£2,800–4,500 |
Assumes Osstem implant with zirconia crown and CBCT scan. No bone graft required. Flight and accommodation costs are mid-range indicative. For cases requiring bone grafts (from A$551) or sinus lifts (from A$995), add these separately. The all-in HCMC cost is competitive with the home-country implant treatment cost alone, before any travel savings are counted.
