Dental implants — New Zealand patients at Picasso Dental Clinic Vietnam
Straumann, Nobel, and Neodent dental implants for Kiwis — transparent NZD pricing, CBCT planning, and global warranty at Picasso Vietnam.
Dental implants replace missing tooth roots with titanium fixtures, then restore chewing with crowns or bridges. For New Zealand patients facing NZD 6,000+ per tooth at home, Vietnam is a rational option when planning is rigorous.
Why Kiwis consider Vietnam
| NZ reality | Picasso response |
|---|---|
| High per-tooth quotes | Published NZD lines on /pricing/ |
| Long waits in some regions | Scheduled trip with fixed stages |
| Brand uncertainty | Named systems — /safety/implant-brands/ |
| Fear after media stories | /is-it-safe/ + honest risks |
Clinical standards (what to verify anywhere)
- 3D CBCT before drilling
- Surgical guide where appropriate
- Brand components you can document for your NZ dentist
- Written aftercare and warranty
Treatment paths
- Single tooth implant
- All-on-4 · All-on-6 — full arch on 4–6 implants
- Full mouth reconstruction — complex mixed cases
- With veneers or crowns on remaining teeth
Two-trip reality (honest)
| Trip | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Trip 1 | Implant placement, temporaries if needed |
| Healing | 3–6 months (case-dependent) |
| Trip 2 | Final crown or bridge |
