How Dental Link works: every step of your dental trip to Vietnam.

The short answer

How Dental Link works: Dental Link is a free service that matches you with vetted dental clinics in Vietnam. It starts with a 10-minute call with us. Within 24 hours, you get two clinics matched to your case, each with a walk through video. Written quotes usually follow within hours of you sending your X-rays. You choose one clinic and book your flight, and our driver is waiting for you at arrivals. We handle everything between the call and your arrival.

To book the call, you first answer 10 questions, in under 2 minutes. No deposits, ever.

The steps to complete your trip to Vietnam with Dental Link, in order.

Getting dental treatment in Vietnam takes more steps than booking a hotel. So here is every step with Dental Link, in order. Go through the steps as fast as you like, and there will be no surprises.

  1. Book your free call. Ten minutes with Mikey or Jessie, your Patient Link Advisors, in your timezone. We ask questions and we do not sell you anything.
  2. Have your consultation on the same call. Tell us what you need done, what you were quoted at home and when you want it. Share any X-rays.
  3. Your advisor presents your case to our network of 50+ partner clinics.
  4. Two options within 24 hours. Your advisor sends you two clinics matched to your case, with walk through videos.
  5. You are introduced to both clinics. A new WhatsApp group with you, your advisor and both clinics. Ask questions there, and get your quotes directly from each clinic.
  6. Want more options? Your advisor can connect you with further clinics.
  7. Choose your clinic with your advisor. You compare the two written quotes and pick one, and we are paid the same whichever you choose.
  8. Book your clinic. Send your flight confirmation to the WhatsApp group. You pay no deposit. The clinic books your appointments around your flights.
  9. Need a visa or a hotel? Your advisor introduces you to our travel partners.

What you do, and what Dental Link does for you behind the scenes.

Here is what Dental Link does for you behind the scenes. Your case goes to our network of partner clinics. The clinics that fit come back with a plan and a price. We compare the clinics for you and narrow them down to two. Then we film a walk through video of each one.

Clinics come back with a written plan and price, usually within hours of your X-rays. We compare what each quote includes, the materials and the warranty, not just the total

You make the final choice, not us

You get two written quotes side by side, with the implant brand, the dental lab and the warranty spelled out. Jordan, our founder, says: "I always encourage patients to speak to a couple of our clinics."

We do not steer you to a clinic

Our commission is the same whichever clinic you choose. The clinic pays it, and it is never added to your quote. A patient pushed into the wrong clinic is a loss for us, not a win.

Clinic names stay hidden until your quotes arrive

Until your quotes arrive, we hide each clinic's name. We describe it like this: Verified Clinic · District 1 · All-on-4 specialist. So you compare the plan and the price, not which clinic has the best marketing.

What happens on your dental trip to Vietnam, from landing to going home.


1
When you land, someone is holding a sign with your name on itFree airport pickup is always included. Tommy, our driver, meets you at arrivals and drives you to your hotel. Your clinic collects you from your hotel. The clinic takes you to and from your appointments for your whole first stay. That transport is included in your clinic's quote.
2
Your advisor sits beside you at your first appointmentYour advisor is in the room and translates the plan, the materials and the warranty terms. So you can ask questions on the spot.
3
Changes to your treatment plan are explained, never pushedYour dentist may recommend a change after seeing you in person. If so, they explain why, and you decide. There is no pressure, and no extra treatment is sold to you just because you are already in Vietnam. Our clinics are contracted to put your care first, not sales targets. Same price as booking direct.
4
You have free days between appointmentsHealing days are a real part of the trip. So are the days the dental lab needs to make your new teeth. Your advisor is one message away the whole time.
5
Home again, and check-ins from your advisorAfter you fly home, your advisor checks in with you, and you have the clinic's direct line. Follow your clinic's instructions once you are home.
6
A second trip, if you are having implantsMost implant patients come twice, 3 to 6 months apart. Your quote states the appointments and the gap between them, so you book flights around real dates.

Questions about how Dental Link works.

How long does it take to get dental implants in Vietnam?

Most implant patients come to Vietnam twice, 3 to 6 months apart. Dental implants need to heal before the final teeth go on. Crowns and veneers are usually one trip. Your quote states the appointments and the gap between them. So you book flights around real dates, not a guess.

Do I pay a deposit to hold my booking?

No deposits, ever. The clinic holds your appointment dates without a deposit. You pay the clinic directly, in person, for work you have agreed to. Dental Link is 100% free for patients, and it is the same price as booking direct.

Which clinic will I be matched with, and can I choose?

Clinics stay anonymous until your quotes are ready. That way you compare the plan and the price, not the branding. Once your quotes are ready, you get the clinic names, the dentist profiles and the walk through videos. Then you choose. You can also ask for a different clinic, or choose none of them.

What is not included in Dental Link's free service?

Hotel, flights and visas are not included. Your advisor introduces you to our travel partners. They handle visas, flights, hotels and airport fast track, a faster way through the airport. You pay the travel provider directly, so we add nothing. You pay your clinic directly for the treatment itself.

Why is Dental Link free for me? What is the catch?

Dental Link earns a commission from the clinic when a patient completes treatment. You pay the clinic directly, at the same price you would pay walking in off the street. The clinic pays the commission. It is never added to your quote.
