Why International Patients Choose Full-Arch Dental Implants in Vietnam

For many international patients, choosing dental treatment abroad is not just about cost it is a journey to find a destination that offers absolute peace of mind and flawless aesthetic results. Mr. Probert Michael Steven (USA) found his answer at Elite Dental. His transformation through full-arch implants is a testament to how modern dentistry can revive both confidence and quality of life.

1. The constant anxiety of life with removable dentures

Previously, Mr. Probert had received an All-on-4 full-arch implant for his lower jaw. However, since 2018, he had been using a removable denture for his upper jaw, which led to persistent daily struggles.

The imbalance between the two arches created numerous “invisible pains” in his daily life:

  • Instability Issues: Every meal was a source of anxiety. The fear of the denture slipping or loosening made him lose confidence in social interactions.
  • The Aesthetic Gap: As a person with high standards, he was dissatisfied with the unnatural appearance of the removable denture. He desired a smile that was not only functional for eating but also naturally beautiful and harmonious with his facial structure.
  • Bone Resorption Complications: Years of wearing dentures caused severe bone resorption in the upper jaw, leading to deep concern over whether his condition could still be “saved” with dental implants.

“I wasn’t just looking to replace missing teeth; I was looking for a treatment plan I could trust completely. I needed to know exactly what would happen at every stage,” Mr. Probert shared.

2. Elite Dental: Where specialized expertise meets high expectations

Mr. Probert proactively sought information through Elite Dental’s website and submitted a consultation request. Immediately, the Elite team responded and designed a personalized roadmap based on his complex bone resorption condition.

Upon visiting the clinic in person, he underwent a CBCT scan and an in-depth consultation with Dr. Tran Chau Bao Phuc (Implant Specialist at Elite Dental Metropole). After evaluating his dental and jawbone health, Dr. Phuc recommended an All-on-5 full-arch implant for the upper jaw.

Why All-on-5? For Mr. Probert’s upper jaw, the 5-implant configuration provided an extra solid foundation in the most optimal bone regions. This was the first step in providing him with peace of mind, knowing his new smile was engineered with sustainable technical precision.

As a perfectionist with high aesthetic demands, Mr. Probert placed his full trust in Elite Dental after receiving a clear, detailed treatment plan and a thorough explanation of the implant types and procedural stages.

3. A precise full-arch Implant process for International Patients

Mr. Probert’s journey was divided into two distinct phases, ensuring maximum comfort for a dental tourist while maintaining rigorous clinical standards.

3.1. Stage 1: Implant placement and provisional restoration

During his first 2 weeks in Vietnam, Dr. Phuc performed the placement of 5 implants.

  • Pre-Surgery: Digital technology was used to collect data for fabricating a provisional prosthesis, shortening the process and providing him with immediate temporary teeth post-surgery. After the procedure, Dr. Tra Mi proceeded to fit the immediate temporary bridge.
  • The Experience: He was completely won over by the “Peace of Mind” provided by the sterile environment and the gentle, professional touch of the surgical team.

3.2. Stage 2: Final restoration – strong and aesthetic teeth

Returning to Vietnam after a few months, Mr. Probert was seen by Dr. Hang (Prosthodontics & Aesthetic Specialist) for the final restoration stage, once the implants had fully integrated into the jawbone.

  • PIC System Digital Precision: The final bridge was crafted with micron-level precision using the PIC system, ensuring a perfect fit with the implants.
  • Personalized Smile Design: Dr. Hang worked closely with him to select the color, translucency, and tooth shape that best harmonized with his face and lower arch.
