But most people cannot afford the level of care they need here in Australia, even with private health insurance, and so live with a smile they’re not happy with.
This was a situation I found myself in 5 years ago, having been quoted $1800 AUD per tooth for a veneer. The estimated total for all work required was over $40,000.
And so, I researched dental costs in Asia, sourced quotes from the Philippines, Bali, Thailand, Malaysia and even South Africa. They were all 70% cheaper than in Australia. Next, I researched the issues that arise with cheap dental work, investigated the clinics and checked their credentials educating myself on the pitfalls and benefits so I could make an informed decision.
Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City! I found a wonderful dentist and was blown away by his care and his team. The technology was astounding: modern facilities, English-speaking staff, specialised dental departments, in-house labs, and highly skilled dentists and surgeons.Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City!
