I am thinking of going to Vietnam for Dental work by Alexandersalvia1

@Wxx3Sounds like you did that a while ago or maybe that dentist only dealt with a specific vendor. You can get about any now. And from Germany as well. Read More

@Phap tri Sorry to hear about your implants failing. Are you in VN? You might want to checkout Smile Care Dental in Da Nang. They will be honest about what is needed and she does not upsell. Read More

@Alexandersalvia1 It really depends on how serious your needs might be. I am really surprised about your experience in USA as they have serious insurance liability. Sounds like your first visit should be to an attorney. If you sue their insurance ... Read More

Sounds like you need to have a serious discussion with your wife. My wife is the one that puts the kibash on that nonsense. Wealthy viets are arrogant abusers. They are playing a dominance game with you. They probably laugh about how easily they can ... Read More

@OceanBeach92107 I'm the weird one. It's been so long since I felt a cool breeze that I really enjoyed the last cool season. Although, Nov, Dec, and Jan were wet. Nothing dries in those months and the ambient levels of mold are quite high. Next home ... Read More
