Invisalign Cost Guide · Updated May 2026
Invisalign Cost in Vietnam, The Complete 2026 Guide.
Invisalign Essentials from 35,000,000 VND (about 1,400 USD). Comprehensive from 120,000,000 to 150,000,000 VND (about 5,000 to 6,200 USD). The same Align Technology aligners and ClinCheck planning used in Sydney, London and New York, at 50 to 70 percent less. No hidden fees. Picasso Dental is a Platinum Elite Invisalign Provider, the highest tier in Align Technology's provider programme.
The Complete Invisalign Tier Pricing
Eight tiers covering everything from minor touch-ups to severe complex cases. The right tier is determined by your specific case after the iTero scan and ClinCheck planning.

|---|---|---|---|
| Invisalign Essentials | Up to 7 aligners | Minor touch-ups, very mild cases | 35,000,000 |
| Invisalign Express | Up to 14 aligners | Mild front-tooth crowding or spacing | 50,000,000 |
| Invisalign Lite | Up to 14 aligners + 2 refinements | Mild to moderate cases | 60,000,000 |
| Invisalign Moderate | Up to 26 aligners + 6 refinements | Moderate alignment cases | 90,000,000 |
| Invisalign Comprehensive (Mild) | Unlimited aligners + unlimited refinements | Complex cases, single arch or simpler | 120,000,000 |
| Invisalign Comprehensive (Standard) | Unlimited aligners + unlimited refinements | Complex two-arch cases | 140,000,000 |
| Invisalign Comprehensive (Severe) | Unlimited aligners + unlimited refinements | Severe two-arch cases, extractions, bite correction | 150,000,000 |
| Invisalign First (Children) | Limited series, age-appropriate | Phase 1 children with mixed dentition | 45,000,000 |
All tiers include the consultation, iTero scan, ClinCheck planning, all aligners in the series, attachment placement, all check-in visits, and final retainers (one set per arch).
Cost Comparison: Vietnam vs Australia, USA, UK
Comprehensive Invisalign comparison for the same case across major markets, 2026 reference prices.
| Country | Comprehensive (Local Currency) | USD Equivalent | Saving vs Picasso |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vietnam (Picasso Dental) | 140,000,000–150,000,000 VND | ~5,800–6,200 USD | baseline |
| Australia (Sydney) | 8,000–10,000 AUD | ~5,300–6,600 USD | Comparable to slight saving |
| Australia (Sydney premium clinic) | 10,000–14,000 AUD | ~6,600–9,200 USD | 800–3,000 USD saved |
| USA (national average) | 5,000–8,000 USD | 5,000–8,000 USD | 0–2,200 USD (varies) |
| USA (premium markets, NYC/LA) | 8,000–12,000 USD | 8,000–12,000 USD | 2,000–6,200 USD saved |
| United Kingdom (London) | 4,500–7,500 GBP | ~5,650–9,400 USD | 0–3,600 USD saved |
| New Zealand (Auckland) | 7,000–10,000 NZD | ~4,200–6,000 USD | Comparable |
For mild and moderate Invisalign tiers, the savings are more dramatic, Vietnam pricing for Lite (60M VND, ~2,500 USD) is roughly half the equivalent in Sydney or London. For Comprehensive cases, the gap narrows but is still meaningful.
What's Included in Every Invisalign Package
The complete breakdown. No surprise add-ons.
Always Included
Specialist orthodontic consultation. iTero 3D digital scan. Photographs. ClinCheck simulation. Pre-treatment X-rays (OPG and Cephalometric). Written treatment plan with predicted outcome.
The Aligner Series
All aligners in the planned series, manufactured by Align Technology and shipped to the clinic in batches. Delivered to you at progress visits, no per-aligner fee.
Attachments and IPR
Composite attachments bonded at the start of treatment and removed at the end. Interproximal reduction (IPR) when planned to create space without extractions. Both are part of the package, not extras.
Check-In Visits
Every 6 to 10 weeks throughout treatment. Tracking review, next aligners handed over, hygiene check. All visits included, no per-visit fee.
Refinements
Comprehensive: unlimited within the case period. Moderate: up to 6. Lite: up to 2. Essentials: 1 limited refinement. Most cases need at least one refinement.
Final Retainers
One set of thermoplastic retainers per arch included. Optional upgrade to Vivera retainers (manufactured by Align Technology, more durable) at additional cost (4,500,000 to 14,000,000 VND).
The All-In Cost for International Patients
Treatment cost is one part. Travel, accommodation and time also matter. Here are typical scenarios.
| Scenario | Treatment | Flights (1–2 trips) | Hotel + Food | All-In (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lite from Sydney (1 trip) | ~2,500 USD | ~1,000 AUD (~650 USD) | ~700 USD (7 nights) | ~3,850 USD |
| Comprehensive from London (2 trips) | ~5,800 USD | ~3,000 GBP (~3,750 USD) | ~1,400 USD (14 nights) | ~10,950 USD |
| Moderate from Auckland (2 trips) | ~3,750 USD | ~2,500 NZD (~1,500 USD) | ~1,000 USD | ~6,250 USD |
| Comprehensive from Singapore (1 trip + remote) | ~5,800 USD | ~600 SGD (~450 USD) | ~500 USD | ~6,750 USD |
Many international patients combine treatment with vacation. Some patients have all aligners shipped after planning and check in remotely with us via WhatsApp, attending only 1 to 2 in-person visits total.
How to Avoid Overpaying for Invisalign
Practical rules for Vietnam and abroad.
1. Insist on a Specialist Orthodontist
Some general dentists offer Invisalign but lack specialist orthodontic training. Treatment is more predictable and outcomes more reliable when planned by a specialist. Picasso has two Platinum Elite specialist orthodontists.
2. Confirm What's Included
Ask specifically: are refinements included? Are check-in visits included? Are final retainers included? Some clinics quote a low "treatment" price that excludes these, then bill them later.
3. Get the ClinCheck Before Committing
The ClinCheck simulation shows your predicted outcome before manufacturing starts. If a clinic refuses to show it or rushes you to commit before review, walk away.
4. Verify the Tier Is Appropriate
Some clinics upsell to Comprehensive when Lite would do. Some others quote Lite for cases that genuinely need Comprehensive (and you'll pay for refinements later). A second opinion is reasonable.
5. Beware of "Mail-Order" Aligners
At-home, no-clinic mail-order aligner systems (no in-person clinical exam, no specialist supervision) are not the same as Invisalign. They are typically much cheaper but the lack of supervision creates real clinical risks. We do not offer or recommend them.
6. Ask About Refinement Fees
Most cases need at least one refinement to perfect the result. Confirm refinement coverage at quoting time, not after. Comprehensive includes unlimited; lower tiers include limited or none.
Insurance and Payment
How payment works for international Invisalign patients.
Foreign Insurance
We do not bill foreign insurers directly. We provide complete documentation (itemised invoices, treatment notes, X-rays, ClinCheck records) that you submit to your home insurance for partial reimbursement.
Maximising Reimbursement
Request your foreign insurance's "predetermination" letter before treatment, this confirms what they will reimburse for orthodontic treatment overseas. We provide treatment-plan documentation in the format your insurer requires.
Payment Methods
International credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex). Bank transfer (USD or VND). We do not accept foreign cheques or cash for amounts above 50 million VND.
Staged Payments
For Invisalign cases, payments are typically staged: 8M VND ClinCheck deposit (credited toward total), balance of treatment at start, refinement fees (if applicable) at refinement time.
Quote Validity
Written quotes are valid for 90 days. Pricing has been stable for the last 3 years; we do not surprise patients with mid-treatment price increases.
Refunds
If you decide not to proceed after the ClinCheck simulation, your 8M VND ClinCheck fee is non-refundable (covers the planning work). The treatment cost is not charged unless you commit.

What is included in the Invisalign price?
All Invisalign packages at Picasso include the consultation, iTero scan, photographs, ClinCheck digital simulation, all aligners in the planned series, attachment placement, all check-in visits, refinements (varies by tier), and final retainers (one set per arch). The 8,000,000 VND ClinCheck planning fee is credited toward your package price if you proceed.
How much cheaper is Invisalign in Vietnam vs Australia, USA or UK?
Invisalign in Vietnam typically costs 50 to 70 percent less than the same case in Australia, USA or UK for mild and moderate tiers, narrowing to 20 to 40 percent saved at Comprehensive level. The aligners, planning software and refinements are identical.
Why is Invisalign cheaper in Vietnam?
Lower labour costs, lower clinic overheads, lower regulatory burden, and currency arbitrage, not lower materials or surgical standards. Picasso uses the same Align Technology aligners, ClinCheck software and treatment protocols used in clinics worldwide. Picasso is a Platinum Elite Invisalign Provider.
What does Platinum Elite Invisalign Provider mean?
Platinum Elite is the highest tier in Align Technology provider programme, awarded based on the number of Invisalign cases completed and clinical outcome quality. Fewer than 1 percent of clinics worldwide hold this status.
What is the ClinCheck planning fee?
8,000,000 VND. It covers the iTero scan, photographs, digital case set-up and the ClinCheck simulation. You see your predicted outcome before committing to treatment. If you proceed, this fee is credited toward your package price.
Are there hidden costs in Invisalign treatment?
No. We provide a full written treatment plan with line-by-line pricing before any treatment starts. Refinements are included as per your tier. Retainers are included. The only optional extras are upgraded retainer types (Vivera retainers) or attachments removal at the end (typically included).
How do I know which Invisalign tier I need?
After your specialist consultation and iTero scan, the orthodontist designs a ClinCheck simulation showing the number of aligners required. The number of aligners determines the tier. We tell you honestly which tier fits, you do not pay for Comprehensive if Lite would do the job.
Are refinements included in all tiers?
Refinements are included in Comprehensive (unlimited within the case), Moderate (up to 6) and Lite (up to 2). Essentials includes one limited refinement. Most cases need at least one refinement at the end to perfect the result.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes. For Invisalign cases, payments are typically staged: deposit at planning, balance of treatment at start of treatment, and refinement fees (if applicable) at the time of refinement. International patients pay by international card or bank transfer.
Are there any extra fees for international patients?
No. Invisalign prices are the same for international and domestic patients. Optional add-on services (airport pickup, hotel booking assistance, English-language case coordination) are provided at no additional charge as part of our international patient programme.
Can my home insurance reimburse Invisalign in Vietnam?
Many do partially. We provide complete documentation, itemised invoices, treatment notes, X-rays, that you submit to your home insurance for partial reimbursement. Most Australian, UK and US plans reimburse some portion of overseas orthodontic treatment when documentation is provided.
