What matters clinically
Veneer cases usually work best as a single 7 to 10 day trip because consultation, temporaries, try-in, bonding, and review can often happen in one stay.
For veneers, compare the written plan more carefully than the headline price. The plan should show material or implant brand, number of visits, temporary work, final restoration, warranty documents, and what happens if adjustment is needed after returning to New Zealand.
Country-specific notes
3-5 year warranty on manufacturing defects. Exclusions: chipping from trauma, biting hard objects, bruxism without guard. Irreversible procedure - if veneer fails, tooth always needs coverage. If debonding occurs in NZ, rebonding costs $300-$600 locally.
Vietnam-specific notes
Picasso prices are in NZD and should be checked against kb/prices.md. The quote should also confirm scans, temporaries, material selection, treatment sequence, and aftercare documents.
