It has been said that Vietnam has more shades of green than any other country and it is indeed one of the most fascinating countries in Asia with a intense and deep culture, vestiges of French colonialism in many cities, and a booming economy that is modernizing quickly. And as with development all over Asia, the clinics and equipment are new, outfitted with the latest equipment, and the dental professionals are multi-lingual and well-trained. It is one of the best value destinations in the world based on price and quality and international arrivals for dental services have been growing over the past 10 years at a double digit pace.

The Vietnamese, or ethnic kinh, inhabited the southern regions of China before migrating southward to inhabit the two great river valleys on the edge of the south-east Asian landmass: the Mekong River basin in the south and in the north the Red River Valley. Vietnam is said to culturally be a province of China as many of the traditions and words are sino-inspired. Later, during the colonial period a missionary translated the language to a Latin alphabet to help increase literacy rates. Thus, the Vietnamese language dropped Chinese ideographs in favor of text a foreign western visitor can read.

In additional to affordable and accessible dental care, Vietnam has white sand beaches, idyllic islands in the north or Phu Quoc in the south, terraced paddy fields near Sapa, and fresh seafood just about everywhere owing to its 2000 km of coastline.

Hanoi in the north and Ho Chi Minh City in the south are the two primary destinations favored by foreign language speaking visitors. Although there are many excellent dentists in other parts of Vietnam one can easily find an English speaking dentist in these two cities.

The country is rapidly emerging as the place to visit for affordable dental services. Australians in particular go there in increasing numbers, and are accustomed to hearing familiar accents when they arrive for dental treatments. Let’s take a brief look at reasons why Vietnam has become a dental tourism destination of note, and why you ought to visit it.

Vietnam’s sprawling cities and remote inland areas depend heavily on modern technology to remain in touch. The 10 million landlines are dwarfed by 134 million mobile accounts being 144% of the population. There are 23 million registered internet users making Vietnam the 17^th most saturated nation in the world. Dental tourists to this fascinating Asian destination have no difficulty keeping in touch with folks back home.

Although the predominant language is Vietnamese, English has become popular as second language because of growing contact with the West. In most schools, the language has replaced French as core subject. The younger generation emerging from the past embraces English eagerly, and is keen to practice its new language skills.

The Vietnamese place high value on education. Students enrolled in the Imperial Academy as far back as 1076. Their college was the Temple of Literature that features on 100,000 đồng banknotes. Competition for university places is as tough as ever, with the highest entrance examination grades essential to guarantee a seat. The five major multi-disciplinary universities include Vietnam National University (Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh), Huế University, University of Da Nang, and Thai Nguyen University.

Vietnamese Dental Industry

The Ministry of Health has overall responsibility for the administration of dentistry, which it manages through the National Dental Council that advises on policy and law. Professional recognition is within the remit of the Vietnam Odonto-Stomatology Association under the terms of the ASEAN Mutual Recognition Agreement on Dental Practitioners. With all these arrangements in place, it is no wonder that Vietnam’s dental professionals in Saigon, Hanoi and Da Nang are on par with their colleagues elsewhere. In a world of Asian opportunity, Vietnam is a country we recommend to dental tourists without hesitation.

Getting There

Vietnam is not just an emerging medical or dental destination. It is also an alluring magnet for leisure travel. The country welcomed over three million visitors in 2013, many of whom landed at one of nine international airports and reported favorably. If we were to single out one for special mention, that might be Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN) in Ho Chi Minh City, just a short four mile ride from the city center.

Visitor Highlights

Vietnam’s tourism potential is immense, with the surface barely explored here. Some examples we might add include cruising in Halong Bay, and exploring Central Vietnam’s French colonial past. Of course, the fisher folk and rice farmers in the Mekong Delta would also like to welcome you. Please visit the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism website for more inspirational ideas.
