A CBCT (cone beam computed tomography) scan — dental 3D imaging — is the standard of care before any implant surgery. It maps bone density, bone volume, nerve and sinus position, and determines the correct implant diameter, length, and angulation. A clinic that proposes implant surgery without one is not meeting international clinical standards. This guide lists eight Hanoi clinics where CBCT is confirmed in-house, and explains how to verify this for any clinic you are considering.
1. Picasso Dental Clinic — Old Quarter and Westlake
CBCT scanning is standard at both Hanoi branches as part of the implant planning protocol. No implant placement proceeds without 3D imaging. The CBCT data informs the treatment plan, the implant selection, and the surgical guide (if used). 4.9/5 from 3,921 patient reviews across the national network.
Old Quarter: 16 Phố Châu Long, Trúc Bạch, Ba Đình
Westlake: LKC22 Hoàng Minh Thảo, Bắc Từ Liêm
Picasso Dental Clinic
Rated 4.9/5 from 3,921 reviews. In-house CBCT at both Hanoi branches. No implant surgery without 3D imaging.
2. Elite Implant Center — Ba Dinh
An implant-specialist clinic where CBCT is the foundation of every treatment plan. Guided implant surgery using surgical stents derived from 3D imaging data is an option for complex or multi-implant cases.
3. Hanoi Dental Center — Hoan Kiem
In-house CBCT as part of the full diagnostic suite. For patients needing a 3D scan ahead of implant placement or bone graft evaluation, the imaging is done in-clinic on the same visit as the consultation.
4. Viet Dental International — Tay Ho
CBCT on-site at the Tay Ho clinic. The scan is included as part of the implant consultation for international patients — confirm whether this is included in the quoted procedure price or billed separately.
5. Nha Khoa International — Tay Ho
One of the earlier adopters of CBCT technology among Hanoi’s international-patient clinics. Imaging is standard for implant cases. In-house digital scan integration with treatment planning software.
6. Hoa Sen Dental — Tay Ho
The smaller caseload model means the prosthodontist-led team uses CBCT data more thoroughly in treatment planning. Useful if you want a clinic that takes longer to discuss the imaging findings with you.
7. Starlight Dental — Ba Dinh
CBCT in-house for implant and complex restorative cases. The clinic handles the scan and the treatment planning under one roof. For straightforward single-implant cases the imaging turnaround is fast.
8. Rose Dental — Tay Ho
Primarily cosmetic-focused, but has CBCT capability for implant cases in the practice. Worth including for patients who want to combine cosmetic work (veneers, whitening) with a single implant on the same trip.
How to verify a clinic has CBCT in-house
Ask this exactly in your initial contact: “Do you have an in-house CBCT (cone beam CT) scanner, or do you refer patients to an imaging centre for 3D dental X-rays?” The answer should be unambiguous. A clinic that answers “we use a high-quality 2D panoramic X-ray” for implant planning is not meeting 2026 international standards.
Also ask: “Is the CBCT scan included in the implant quotation, or is it an additional charge?” It is legitimately billed separately at some clinics (typically USD 50–100); what is not acceptable is it being skipped.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a CBCT scan necessary before dental implants in Hanoi? Yes — it is the minimum standard of care for implant planning. Without it, the implantologist cannot reliably assess bone density, bone volume, nerve position, or sinus proximity. Any Hanoi clinic placing implants without a CBCT scan should be declined.
How much does a CBCT scan cost in Hanoi? At international-patient clinics, a CBCT scan costs USD 50–100 when billed separately. Many clinics include it in the implant consultation fee. Always confirm before arriving whether it is included in your quoted treatment cost.
Can I bring my own CBCT scan to a Hanoi clinic? Yes. If you had a CBCT scan at home within the past 6 months and can provide the DICOM files (the full 3D image data, not just a printout), a Hanoi clinic can review it. This can save time and cost at the start of your trip. Bring the files on a USB drive or share via secure transfer.
